CPD
How can we add value to CPD opportunities using the online dimension of Glow, the national intranet for schools? Catriona Oates offers some advice.

However, this view gives a limited impression of the possibilities offered by the online dimension to our CPD. The only added value is availability and convenience and the CPD experience is largely a passive one.

At this point, it probably will be helpful to share some of my beliefs about CPD: 

The best CPD is collaborative.

Educators should have ownership of their CPD.

CPD builds professional capacity.

CPD is central to leadership development

Above all, CPD must have impact on learning.

I would like to explore a few basic ways in which we can add value to CPD opportunities through the online dimension of Glow, Scotland’s national intranet for schools – and by adding value I mean getting more out of CPD experiences by keeping the above principles on the radar throughout.
