Project Goals:
- To develop professional learning for Georgia teachers (and eventually leaders) to provide them with an opportunity to be successful on the new evaluation system
- To develop content in a low cost, flexible format that produces observable results
- To create competency-based modules to allow an efficient, targeted form of learning
