Participants will examine the impacts of AI\, algorithmic racism and other inequities\, and profit-focused surveillance on our capacities to think\, teach\, and learn. The impacts of social media on child and adolescent mental health will also be explored. Participants will consider how to critically evaluate\, use\, and limit technologies for instruction and assessment. They will explore potential uses of AI with their students by drafting\, revising\, and disclosing the use of AI in their own work. \n\n\n\nThis course encourages participants to evaluate their own paradigms around digital and media literacy – content that is universally relevant regardless of grade level or subject area. Participants will apply content and skills to the age/grade bands and/or subject areas that are most relevant to their own roles and contexts. \n\n\n\nStart/End Dates: January 12\, 2026 – April 26\, 2026 \n\n\n\nThis is an asynchronous course with optional one-on-one\, small group\, and/or whole group synchronous Zoom meetings on days to be determined by student schedules and needs. \n\n\n\nIn addition\, students are invited to attend an optional course kick-off meeting on either: \n\n\n\n1/13/2026 or 1/14/2026 | 3:30 PM – 4:30 PM \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nPresented by\n\n\n\nAlicia Beth

Early educators also recognize the importance of planning the environment and the role of family engagement. This knowledge enables early educators to plan effective and engaging learning experiences for all children.  \n\n\n\nIn this course\, the learner will practice using observations of children and knowledge of the Vermont Early Learning Standards to develop and implement a learning sequence with activities and experiences that integrate all learning domains and support relevant goals and objectives for children’s individual learning needs. Through required assignments and application in classroom settings\, the student will demonstrate their abilities to assess children’s learning\, evaluate curricula\, and plan a learning environment. Additionally\, they will learn to identify opportunities for engaging families to support their young children’s learning and development. In this course\, the student will review and analyze several pedagogical approaches for developing and implementing early childhood curriculum and apply this knowledge to enhance their own approach to planning and teaching. Additionally\, the student will learn how to plan a curriculum that integrates various disciplines\, including the visual arts and creative expression. Strategies for promoting young children’s social and emotional development and for including children of all abilities will be explored. \n\n\n\nAnother focus of this course is on becoming a professional and adhering to a code of professional ethics.   \n\n\n\nStart/End Dates: September 8\, 2025- December 11\, 2025 \n\n\n\nSynchronous Class Meetings: \n\n\n\n9/13/2025: 8:30-3:00 (in person) \n\n\n\n10/11/2025: 8:30 AM – 3:00 PM (online) \n\n\n\n11/1/2025: 8:30 AM – 3:00 PM (in person) \n\n\n\n12/6/2025: 8:30 AM – 3:00 PM (online) \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nInstructor\n\n\n\nCathy Siggins

In addition\, students will develop a better understanding of research methods and refine their own observational skills.  \n\n\n\nIn this course\, students will conduct observations of children at different stages of development and analyze and interpret their observations by applying what they are learning in this course. Students will also do in-depth research into a topic in child development that interests them and teach others what they have discovered.  \n\n\n\nStart/End Dates: June 23 – August 17\, 2025 \n\n\n\nClass Meetings: \n\n\n\n6/28/2025: 8:30 AM – 3:00 PM (in person class) \n\n\n\n7/19/2025: 8:30 AM – 3:00 PM (online synchronous meeting) \n\n\n\n8/9/2025: 8:30 AM – 3:00 PM (in person class) \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nPresented by\n\n\n\nKate Boursiquot

One can also see perceptions of behavior and conflict\, how problems are solved\, what rituals are embedded\, and who has and uses power. The culture of any community impacts how its members experience\, hold\, and metabolize pain (e.g. emotional\, psychological\, social\, interpersonal)\, how they make meaning of events and interactions\, and how they individually and collectively define their purpose. In this course\, participants build on work from Level 1 and take a deeper look at both the culture of our schools and the ones we inherited from our own families and communities.This course will also center on the critical importance of understanding and living the 5 Commitments to Transformation\, with a particular focus on being reflective about our work.  Schools place a premium on educators having content and curricular expertise\, as well as deeply knowing their students. While these understandings are important\, they should not replace the expertise we develop by examining our own beliefs\, biases\, assumptions\, worldviews\, and action patterns. Reflective Practice is a centerpiece of any trauma-informed and pro-equity work. Relationships are the primary casualty of trauma\, and relational health and wealth help us recover\, grow\, and heal. We will advance our work in the 5 Key Practices to Transform Trauma\, while deepening our skills in developing and sustaining strong relationships with our colleagues\, students\, and families. Fundamental to these key practices is a comprehensive understanding of just how vital reframing is as both a mindset and a social justice practice. We will spend time rehearsing and role modeling reframing so it becomes a facile part of one’s regular approach with students and colleagues. Participants will read\, watch\, listen\, discuss\, and reflect together in pursuit of innovative shifts. We will challenge one another’s pedagogy and ideology\, examine the effects of white supremacy and sociocultural/racial trauma\, and work to make meaningful improvements in our mindset\, biases\, and behaviors. \n\n\n\nStart/End Dates: May 1 – July 20\, 2025 \n\n\n\nSynchronous Online Learning Sessions: \n\n\n\n5/7/2024: 9:00 – 3:00 \n\n\n\n5/23/25: 1:00 – 4:00 \n\n\n\n6/4/2025: 1:00 – 5:00 \n\n\n\n6/18/2025: 9:00 – 3:00 \n\n\n\n6/24/25: 9:00 – 12:00 \n\n\n\n7/9/2025: 9:00 – 3:00 \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nPresented by\n\n\n\nDave Melnick

They will explore the power and impact of centering students and supporting families. Finally\, participants will hear from expert panelists representing several different disciplines to gain insight into common misconceptions\, miscommunications\, and challenges that occur in collaborative work. Participants will leave equipped and inspired to engage in ongoing learning and contribute to the success and well being of every student.  \n\n\n\nIn addition to the three workshop days\, course takers will complete readings and engage with recommended content; complete reflections and analyses; engage asynchronously with peers to help synthesize new learning; participate in optional additional meetings with the course instructors; engage in field work while applying course concepts; and produce a culminating artifact demonstrating evolution of professional practice.
