In this professional learning session, participants will become MIE Trainers, able to join the TCEA MIE Trainer Community and the Microsoft USA MIE Trainer Community on Facebook. Participants will leave with the ability to grant badges and points in the Microsoft Educator Community. Resources appear in a linked OneNote online notebook.
Participants who do not sign-in may fail to gain access to additional resources.
"I am so glad you are here," said the Executive Director. "A high school and a middle school principal shared their urgent need for training. They are moving from Google Classroom (and not everyone is happy about that) to Office 365 Pro Plus for students and staff.
Teachers need to learn the basics of Office 365, blended learning and flipped approaches, as well as join the MS Education Community, learn about becoming MIE Experts, etc. They need a one-day workshop schedule with resources as part of a Train the Trainers initiative, one teacher per grade level and/or department team. A list of mini-lessons you need to build capacity in teachers appears below."
Help users understand the difference between free Microsoft accounts and Office 365 accounts. The primary action to avoid is creating a free Microsoft account using an Office 365 account. Also, to recognize where a user is logging into.

“Most human behavior is learned observationally through modeling: from observing others, and this coded information serves as a guide for action,” says Albert Bandura, social learning theorist. Screencasting facilitates teacher modeling. Research, as pointed out in various studies, has shown that “modeling is an effective instructional strategy in that it allows students to observe the teacher’s thought processes” (source).
