I don't know about other teachers, but I love to be able to learn without changing out of my jammies! I spent an otherwise "lazy" Sunday doing just that: watching PD online. The best part? It was all FREE! Yes, you read that correctly. I got to attend a virtual conference with presentations by Mira Canion, Sarah Breckley, Jeremy Jordan and more great names in the world language orbit. Presentations covered how to create an IPA (Integrated Performance Assessment), increase vocabulary retention and integrate reading from the beginning of the year---and MORE!
The tips I learned can be applied to any language. If you're a language teacher and don't already belong to some Facebook teacher groups, go online ASAP and find your tribe(s)! Many learning opportunities are posted in those groups first.
