This is an exciting week at AAE. Today, the professional development branch of the AAE blog has a new partner, Best Practices Weekly (BPW). BPW is a free non-profit professional development service for teachers that summarizes education research into bite-size chunks for busy educators. On the first Wednesday of every month the AAE blog will be turned over to BPW to post an entry recounting their previous month's editions. As Elliot Haspel, Editor-in-Chief of BPW explains "Best Practices Weekly staff culls through the major journals and magazines (think The Reading Teacher, etc.) and picks out the most actionable articles about instructional practices - currently we're focusing on elementary grades but have plans to expand into the secondary grades soon. Then, we put together a one-page summary, a short video and a short podcast, along with a planning guide to help you implement the ideas in your classroom. The whole goal is to let teachers consume a best practice nugget in 10 minutes per week and then put it to work with their students the next day." We are partnering with BPW to ensure that this streamlined best practice resource gets into the hands of all teachers, especially AAE members. We encourage you to go to www.bestpracticesweekly.com and enter your email address to get weekly notifications of new editions. With that said, let's get going.
