Book Study as Gamified Professional Learning<\/span><\/h2>\n

Tuesday, June 27, 2023 \u2b25 1:00 – 2:30 PM ET US
\nPresented by Karen Streeter and Ruth Okoye<\/h3>\n

Session Description:<\/span><\/h4>\n

Find out how we used challenges, badges and Easter eggs to help teachers engage in a book study and actively participate in a global learning network. You’ll see how gamifying a book study can enable you to establish an online learning culture based on professional conversation about the text.<\/p>\n

Purpose:<\/span><\/h5>\n

In this session we share our gamified book study strategy in which we use challenges, badges and easter eggs to encourage educators to engage in professional learning conversations around a text. The strategy has proven useful to encourage educators who are typically reluctant to engage in this type of professional learning. We\u2019ll explain how we choose activities for challenges, behaviors for badges and easter egg engagements.<\/p>\n
