Professional Learning for Teachers - OpenSciEd

Unlock the Power of OpenSciEd’s Curriculum

OpenSciEd’s professional learning is key to unlocking the power of our materials. The research is clear that it takes both high quality instructional materials AND professional learning to elevate classroom instruction. Unfortunately, most science teachers don’t have access to one or the other or both. A big reason OpenSciEd exists is to make sure this becomes the exception rather than the rule. The development of our high quality instructional materials was funded by philanthropy, so we can share those materials with teachers everywhere for free.

In-person and Virtual Events

Attend a scheduled professional learning event! OpenSciEd and our Certified PL Providers offer a wide range of options for professional learning that will unlock the power of the materials and your students.

Professional Learning for Your District

OpenSciEd or one of our Certified PL Providers would love to provide professional learning for you and your colleagues. Our professional learning core offerings help teachers engage every student in three-dimensional phenomenon-based science learning. These experiences prepare teachers to become facilitators of learning who guide students in a new kind of teaching and learning. 

On-Demand Resources

We know that many teachers can’t access the professional learning they deserve, so we are constantly developing new, on-demand resources (many of which are free) to get you as much support as possible.

Professional learning is helping me build my confidence to be an effective science teacher. One big piece of feedback I get from my students is, “You’re so passionate about it.” Being in this professional learning community stokes that flame!
