Tailored for high school students (and their teachers) who are involved in education pathway courses. Great ideas that you customize!

You are laying the groundwork for their success.

EAP (formerly referred to as TAP) and ECE teachers comprise the target audience for this course. This pipeline–based series of posts consists of more than 25 lessons, with nearly 90 prompts prepared as discussion and project starters, leading future teachers to consider many important concepts that are embedded in teaching as a profession. As a teacher-leader, you are welcome to adjust lesson content as needed to best address the interests, plans, and needs of your students. You may enroll at any time, and you are in complete control of how you use course material, and how often you and your students access it. Lessons in this course are keyed to the state standards for pathway courses (and will be re-aligned once the updated standards are available).  

An excerpt from High School – TAP Explorations

Even when you can’t see the progress, and even if your students don’t notice they are learning, you are laying the groundwork for their success.

As a teacher you might not ever see the fruits of your labor, especially the growth and achievements that emerge years – or even decades – later.

Regardless, a teacher's impact is definitely far reaching and ongoing.

What are some ways to capture "evidence" that a student is learning? Stated another way, what is a good way to prove that a student is "guilty of learning?"

Impact 101 Logo For Web Header.jpg

What’s "the one thing" you really want to bring to your classroom, school, or district? Impact 101 can help you get it done!

Impact 101 lets you decide.

Chart your own path in this professional learning experience where you decide what to focus on. Creativity, customization, and support are emphasized in this course – where everyone is working on something different while using the same frameworks to accomplish their goals.

​

What sorts of endeavors could Impact 101 help you take from concept to reality?

  • Start a program to help welcome new students to your school.

  • Create a structure for peer-to-peer classroom visits and meaningful feedback.

  • Develop a system to help students resolve conflict.
     

You decide. Impact 101 will help you get there!

An excerpt from Impact 101

Fact: You know your students, your classroom, and your school better than anyone else.

For your project to succeed, you might need to build a new structure.


Or make new decisions.


Or create a new messaging campaign (which doesn't necessarily mean a big public relations push).


Doing these things will invigorate existing (and new) communities of learners, whether adults or youth.

Again, you know your students, your classroom, and your school better than anyone else.


So, stick with your plan and keep asking, "What is this for?," and "Who is this for?"

Uplift 1.0 Logo.png

VIRTUAL

Awaiting you are 29 brief and encouraging posts – a mix of video, audio, images, and writing – all highlighting the great value of educators!

The encouragement you need – when you need it.

Thank you, great educator! With each Uplift! lesson typically requiring less than four minutes to read or view, you will have time to drop into the course and enjoy these messages of gratitude and encouragement. As with any PAGE virtual course, you can add comments on the content and engage with others in the course if you want to do so, or you can participate individually. Uplift! 1.0 is the original iteration of the PAGE Uplift! series. You may register for one Uplift! course, or more, and in any order you wish.

An excerpt from Uplift! 1.0

When you selflessly serve others as an educator, helping the person next to you, demonstrating a willingness to be exactly what someone else needs, you are showing others what kind of people decide on a life of teaching and leading.

What kind of people teach?

Look in the mirror. That person is the kind of person who teaches.

​

Thanks for doing such noble and meaningful work.

Uplift 2.0 logo.png

VIRTUAL

The sole purpose of Uplift! 2.0 is to offer encouragement to you, a great educator, because that’s what you do for others.

Do for yourself as you do for others.

What other profession has so much potential impact as the work that you do? Dozens of students each day – and hundreds over the course of a career – are influenced by your words, your questions, your listening, and your example. The ripple effect of your decision to serve others is immeasurable. Enroll in Uplift! 2.0 and be immersed in positive messages that highlight the hope you provide, the change you usher in, and the kindness you demonstrate. Great educators are a gift, and this course is one way PAGE wants to say “thank you” for your teaching and leading.

An excerpt from Uplift! 2.0

A conversation about artificial intelligence and the nearly ubiquitous access to increasingly massive amounts of information leads us to know that the pace of change is not slowing.

​

These rapid shifts in technology and society present educators with unique challenges. Great educators nonetheless continue to focus on relationship building, and students benefit.

​

We do not know the specifics of tomorrow, but your dedication and commitment to teaching and learning ensures that those you teach now, and those they interact with thereafter, will be fully prepared for whatever they face.

Great educators make a difference in the lives of many people. And those people then make a difference for others. Your work matters!

Because your work matters.

You and I can easily remember at least one amazing teacher in our lives. In fact, we can probably recall the names of two or more. Each of our great teachers made us feel like we mattered, that we were somebody, that our interests and talents held great potential and that these special people, teachers that truly cared about us, helped us believe that we could learn, excel, and accomplish great things. Who can ask for more than that? As a dedicated educator you build confidence, you inspire leadership, and you create a legacy of meaning and impact. Thank you!

An excerpt from Uplift! 3.0

Don't forget to do something for yourself every now and then. Go for a bike ride. Take a walk. Look at the beauty around you. Enjoy a meal. Spend time alone, or with a friend or loved one.

Giving is great, and great teachers give much. All the time.

Perhaps it's time to give yourself a moment to rest, appreciate, and recharge.

You deserve it.
