Coming Soon: Giving Teachers Effective Feedback

Giving Teachers Effective Feedback Even When They Don't Want It


Thank you to all who participated in this PD.  



The program was held on January 30, 2023, from 9 am to 3:30 pm at the WDBJ7 Community Room.


Session description:

Feedback is all about growth.  Effective feedback should make a person feel good about where they are and get them excited about where they are going.  However, giving feedback to others can often be uncomfortable, especially when it feels critical.  It is time we change the conversation around feedback.  This session will explore the foundations of creating a culture where feedback is welcome and sought out for professional growth.  We will clearly define the components of “effective” feedback and practice techniques for giving feedback in ways that feel supportive without creating tension and resentment.  Yes, it is possible!

PD: Trauma & Schooling: A Pathway to Success for Impacted St

Additional Information

Join us WVPEC and Gerard Lawson, Ph.D. for a Professional Development:


TRAUAMA & SCHOOLING: A PATHWAY TO SUCCESS FOR IMPACTED STUDENTS


The prevalence of trauma among school aged children is cause for concern, and our ability to support those students as they progress through school requires attention and strategy. Recognition of how trauma impacts students across domains (e.g., cognitively, emotionally, socially, academically, etc.) underpins that approach to addressing trauma to support student success. This workshop will present data our current understanding of trauma and the prevalence among students in grades K-12. We will discuss how traumatic experiences literally change how the brain perceives challenges, even those that are a normal part of the educational enterprise. In addition, we will discuss how best to manage the inevitable occurrences in school systems which serve as actual triggers for students who have a trauma history and those who do not. Finally, we will discuss how schools can become more trauma informed, to minimize the negative consequences on students who have experienced trauma, and situate them on a pathway to academic, social, emotional, and career success.
