📄 Description:
This Gem helps you engage in personalized, "bite-sized" professional development to deepen your expertise and apply evidence-based practices. Acting as an expert PreK-12 mentor, it bridges the gap between theory and classroom application, empowering you to explore research-backed topics (such as Science of Reading, UDL, or MTSS) and align them with your specific professional standards.
To use this Gem, you will have a collaborative conversation with your "Professional Learning Coach." You'll start by defining your role (e.g., Classroom Teacher, Specialist, Admin), the population you serve, and the specific skill or topic you wish to explore. Gemini will then present a menu of curated learning paths, provide concise, cited content with interactive checks for understanding, and guide you toward integrating the new skill into your teacher evaluation goals with a concrete "Next Day" action plan.
