The DBQ Project has been a true partner in analyzing needs and envisioning the professional development session. Experiencing the virtual PD has helped our teachers use the DBQ Online technology more effectively. The sessions they developed have helped our teachers learn new technology tools which will increase student engagement whether we are in the classroom or learning from home.

The virtual PD allowed teachers to use the DBQ Online platform through the lens of both a student and teacher. This was valuable!! Teachers felt more comfortable knowing they have a distance learning platform to use no matter what could happen with online learning in the future. They experienced first hand how to teach and learn virtually. They felt supported.

Virtual trainings are becoming the norm in our world today and some are better than others. The DBQ project virtual training is one of those that is better. It was very interactive and we had time to get into break-out rooms to collaborate with our teachers on the different parts of the instructional framework to enhance the learning during this training. We feel ready to begin digging into DBQs as a result.

We are truly fortunate to have had the opportunity to receive online training from the DBQ Project. The 2 1/2 hour session taught us a wide range of instructional strategies that could be used to improve student learning outcomes, and masterfully answered questions from our veteran teaching team. We found the discussion of a range of literacy strategies to be particularly valuable. I would highly recommend online training from the DBQ Project to anyone.
