Full course description
This course is designed in alignment with the State Systemic Improvement Plan through the Office of Special Education Services. For more information, please see the SSIP website: https://sde.ok.gov/state-systemic-improvement-plan
The SSIP is comprised of self-paced, asynchronous professional development, synchronous, virtual, live events, an in-person early literacy conference, and an in-person data literacy retreat. To enroll in these opportunities, participants will access the sequence through the state department’s OSDE Connect platform.
SSIP has developed three years of sequenced professional development in the form of self-paced modules that are intended to support the needs of K-3 students and educators. Each professional development is approximately 45 minutes of self-paced learning. Modules will be available for participants on the first of every month, excluding December, June, and July. Modules are supported
with real-time virtual professional development opportunities that support educator collaboration and deeper resource understanding.
Each module begins with a content assessment to determine participant understanding before the module. The module is comprised of recorded instruction with opportunities for reflection. The last step of the module is the completion of a content assessment and professional development feedback survey.
SSIP professional development asynchronous modules are structured to provide a deeper understanding regarding the content from the modules. Following each pair of modules, a half-day synchronous virtual professional development will support the content learned independently. These pairs allow for a total of four half-day virtual professional development opportunities that dive deeper into the module content and provide collaborative experiences with other educators.
Two opportunities will be offered to accommodate schedules. Information to utilize funding for substitutes can be provided as needed. Participants will be expected to attend one of the following sessions for each synchronous PD opportunity:
Day AM: 8:00-11:30am
Day PM: 12:00-3:30pm
