This is a four-week PLD course starting with a session with facilitators Tanya and Ben from The New Zealand Council for Educational Research (NZCER).

This will be followed by a series of self-directed online activities, within an online community of professional learning. Participants will have the opportunity to practise new ideas and techniques, reflect on the new learning, and exchange experiences and ideas with each other and the facilitators.
