A professional learning community, also known as a PLC, is a group of educators that meet regularly and share expertise, working collaboratively to improve teaching, learning, and the academic performances of their students. In this webinar, Implementation Coordinator Illka Slater shares the Gizmo PLC Toolkit that provides the documents that can help a PLC group to collaboratively plan, deliver and analyze standard-based lessons using Gizmos. The toolkit also provides a framework for a PLC group to discuss how to structure and scaffold their questions during a Gizmos lesson to support the agreed instruction, and supports student growth mindset.
