Teacher Training Dates. Teachers need to attend one after-school training session, which may be held face-to-face or virtually. Face-to-face training sessions are designed for teachers who have not participated previously in a virtual student lesson or attended Elluminate Live! training conducted by the MSiC staff, either at the Center or within school divisions. ITRTs may also attend to support a given teacher or to provide overall leadership for implementation in multiple classrooms within the school. At the face-to-face training, you will experience the virtual lesson, receive handouts and materials for hands-on activities during the student lesson, and learn how easy it is to receive the lesson with only one computer, a projection system, and Internet access. Virtual training sessions are designed for teachers who have previously participated in a virtual lesson or received Elluminate Live! training; the virtual session is an overview of the lesson and details regarding participation. Materials needed for the student lesson will be delivered to you. How to Register. Go to http://msinnovation.info/vlregister and register online. Lesson Offerings
