Strategies to Improve Student Achievement

Course Resources

The resources in this course are intended to support teachers in the integration of technology in teaching and learning. Some of the modules in the course are designed to allow educators to earn Self-Selected In-service (SSI) and/or Professional Development Points (PDPs), other modules are simply informational. Check the Module About Page to determine if SSI/PDPs are available for the module.

Online and Blended Self-Selected Inservice Guidelines

All Self-Selected Inservice (SSI) and Professional Development Points (PDPs) require prior approval by a principal or supervisor. SSI MUST be completed outside regular working hours. Teachers should first obtain approval if completing the module for SSI or PDPs.

Hours that may be earned for each course module vary. Refer to each module's About Page for details.
