PEDU 9086: Expanding Today’s Curriculum with Teacher Made Activities – Echoes (1 – 3)

Designed for educators like you who want to authentically engage their students, this course provides the opportunity to earn graduate-level credit for Echoes and Reflections-inspired activities you create to expand your curriculum. As an educator, you are excited to share your learnings with your students, and we at Teacher Friendly are aware that much of the work to accomplish this is done behind the scenes on your own time. You can now earn up to 3 units of credit for the extra hours and effort you invest (or have already invested) away from paid professional hours to create activities that will broaden your curriculum and add depth to your students’ Holocaust studies. To obtain PD credit for the time you devoted (or plan to devote) to ideating and developing Echoes and Reflections activities for your classroom, you simply need to write a reflection paper detailing your Echoes and Reflections journey from inspiration to implementation of the activity/activities. Then submit it, along with a time log verifying your time spent on this project away from professionally paid hours, for evaluation and credit.
