Professional development is critically important to the successful integration of any technology program. Based on needs assessment results, workshops are offered throughout the year as part of the Parkland Professional Development Academy to teachers and administrators. The 2017 Summer Technology Academy Workshops provided several high-quality workshops on such topics as:
- Formative Assessment
- Using Google Chromebooks in the Classroom
- Data-driven instruction in the 21st century classroom
- Ramping Up Your Presentation Toolbox
