Collaborative Learning – Online Teacher CPD
The research around collaborative learning gives us clear guidance that structured collaboration leads to stronger outcomes than unstructured work. Mike Gershon’s collaborative learning teacher, CPD, takes this and runs with it, giving you a huge range of strategies, techniques, and practical activities you can use to structure collaborative learning in your classroom.
Through Mike’s Effective Teaching and Learning CPD platform, schools and teachers around the world have access to high-quality training that includes hundreds of practical strategies and techniques to support learning. Over 24,000 teachers from 1,500 schools already have access to the platform.
Individual users can sign up to Mike Gershon’s CPD platform for as little as £30 for a monthly membership.
