What are the useful tools for teachers and trainers<\/strong> who work in Second Chance Education field<\/strong>?<\/p>\n

What do they need for sustaining their continuous professional development<\/strong>?<\/p>\n

We spoke to 75 educators across Europe and asked them what their priorities for Continuous Professional Development are. Their responses indicate some major trends concerning what SCE teachers need in order to adequately address new challenges, such as integrating migrants and refugees into classes, and increasing the productive use of digital technologies.<\/p>\n

The EPODS team has carried out a Joint User Needs Analysis<\/strong>, which provided valuable feedback and is helping guide the development of teacher-training modules.<\/p>\n

The EPODS Joint User Needs Analysis is available at www.secondchanceeducation.eu\/materials<\/a>.<\/p>\n
