Fall Workshops at The Foundation

13/11/2011

This fall the Al Qasimi Foundation is pleased to be running four different teacher professional development courses, covering education technology, action research, classroom management and technology for school leadership. Each course comprises five or six workshops, held in the Foundation’s new training suite. Ninety Arabic and English-speaking teachers, school principals and ministry supervisors come together across the four courses to share their experiences and best practice, as well as being trained on how to use tools such as Google Documents and blogs to enhance their teaching and management skills. All of the courses have been well-received by participants and we are already looking forward to the programme that will be offer next semester.
