Description¶
SERP offers an online professional learning series in which teachers and coaches explore STARI practices and skills and learn to implement the program. The series is entirely online and asynchronous, but educators are encouraged to engage in collaborative teacher teams where possible. "It is estimated that the STARI Professional Learning Series will take approximately 20 hours, with about 8 hours intended for before implementation (Sessions 1-6) and the rest spread across the year (1-2 hours/month)." Sessions include videos, readings, and hands-on activities, and a certificate is provided on completion.
