Georgia – Professional Learning Project
A critical component of the Professional Learning Project is the evaluation of the usefulness and quality of content and delivery of the math/ELA content professional development Elluminate sessions. This component entails the development of a general online survey for all professional learning sessions to be held during Spring 2012. This survey is housed on SEDL's Web site, and SECC will provide feedback from the surveys at periodic points in time.

During this month, the web version of the survey was tested, tweaked, and finalized in preparation for the professional learning sessions scheduled to begin in January 2012. Web links were established and activated.
November
SECC staff worked with several staff at the Georgia Department of Education (GaDOE) in November 2011 to decide on survey questions for participants who were receiving professional learning sessions through webinars via the GaDOE Web site. Staff also discussed the mechanics for linking the GaDOE Web page to the survey and for participants to provide information on their participation in the webinars. During this month, the survey was developed and uploaded onto SEDL’s Web site, and the links to the GaDOE Web page were completed.
