Learn how to power up your classroom with fun and learning at Camp Breakout EDU!
Interactive webinars, collaboration, and PD credits are waiting for you this summer
At Breakout EDU, we believe that professional development should be enriching, actionable, and FUN! Our second annual Camp Breakout EDU webinar series is designed to equip educators with the tools and strategies they need to supercharge student engagement and turn classrooms into dynamic learning environments.
Whether you are brand new to Breakout EDU or are a seasoned classroom gaming professional, we invite you to virtually join us for our two summer sessions (July 22-25, 2024 and August 20-21, 2024) and start getting excited for the year ahead.
Importance of professional development
Great teachers build great learners! In fact, research has shown that an inspiring and informed teacher is one of the most important school-related factors influencing student achievement. Knowing that quality teachers are a critical determinant of student achievement underscores the need for quality, engaging professional development opportunities to help keep skills fresh.
The truth is that sophisticated forms of teaching are needed to develop key student competencies in content proficiency, critical thinking, problem solving, communication, and collaboration. When done well, quality professional development supports teacher facilitation of these important skills through sharing research-informed instructional approaches and providing opportunities to collaborate with peers.
While summer is hopefully a time for you to relax and recharge, we know many teachers are already thinking about and planning for how to make the year ahead even more successful for their students. Camp Breakout EDU is the perfect event to learn more about a tool that can help you facilitate countless effective and engaging learning experiences in your classroom.
