Use Gurian Online Course for Your 2020 PD Days!

Posted by Michael Gurian

If you haven’t looked recently at our Products page, we hope you will click https://gurianinstitute.com/products/ and look at the products we offer.  One of those is our 4 plus hour Online Course featuring Michael Gurian.  You can get more specifics about this course at https://gurianinstitute.com/products/boys-and-girls-learn-differently-online-course/.  The course can be used by whole school teams on Professional Development days.  A school superintendent who used it with his staff called it “a life-changing PD experience for our schools.”  A principal who used it the same way called it, “eye-opening, dynamic, and the perfect fit for forty teachers on our PD day.”

When Michael and the GI team created the course, we did so in order to 1) help educators and others who wanted theory and strategies individually, 2) provide a way for groups of teachers/staff to have a one-day Professional Development experience, and 3) give potential certifying Gurian Institute trainers an online asset as part of their certification.  Happily, the course is being used in all these ways.  Some schools are using the course in 2 – 4 chunks, spreading it over multiple weeks of morning/afternoon PD times.

If you are looking for resources to adapt to your school’s PD schedule in 2020, we hope you will consider using this Online Course.  It is a great fit for both coed and single sex schools, because it covers the learning and life needs of both boys and girls and when emphasizing one, compares it with the other.  The course is also user-friendly:  once your organization or school purchases the course, GI will send a private link to your team leader that allows the course to be projected for the whole room.

The video content of the course is divided into well-timed clips that align with discussion questions and exercises you are provided with in PDF form for distribution to all the staff in the room.  A leader in the room can help navigate content and lead exercises, or the course can stand alone as long as a leader runs the projection system to give reflection/discussion time.  Either way, the course can fill a six to seven hour PD day because all of its content in various modalities.

For groups, we offer a discount price per person that is aligned with the number of participants.  To explore these discounts and learn more about how to bring the course to your PD day, write us at info@gurianinstitute.com.  To learn more about all our products and our online courses, please visit us at www.gurianinstitute.com.  We look forward to serving you in the new year!
