Not Sure Where to Start?
Use these questions to help identify a learning pathway that may be useful to you:
- Is there a topic above that I have had little or no opportunity to explore?
- Is there an area where I feel less confident applying what I know?
- Have I encountered a situation recently that left me unsure of how to respond?
- Is there an area where I would like to better understand the experiences of students, families or colleagues?
If one of these questions connects with you, consider choosing that topic as your next learning pathway.
When You Choose a Pathway
Each pathway can include several options so you can choose the level of engagement that best fits your needs:
Starting Point — Build foundational understanding through a short reading, video or introductory activity.
Go Deeper — Explore the topic through a case study, reflection activity, discussion or extended resource.
Put It Into Practice — Identify an action, strategy or change that you can apply within your own role.
