Badging OverviewThe goal of the NGI Introductory Professional Development is to provide sufficient understanding to support transformation of your existing curriculum for delivery using the CoP model and NGI software.

The NexGen Inquiry (NGI) Introductory Professional Development is designed to award three badges for completion of three “courses” to meet this goal:

1. Course 1 - Learning About the Community of Practice Instructional Model for Science (4.5 hrs)a. Module 1: Overviewb. Module 2: Introduction to Community of Practice (CoP) Instructional Model for Sciencec. Module 3: How CoP Supports Implementation of NGSS/State Standardsd. Module 4: Processing What We Have Learned

2. Course 2 – Immersion in the CoP Model (6.2 hours)a. Module 1: Levels of Inquiry and the Implementation Trajectoryb. Module 2: Messing About Inquiryc. Module 3: Structured Inquiryd. Module 4: Open Inquirye. Module 5: Processing What We Have Learned

3. Course 3 – Lesson Transformation and Implementation (4.7 hrs)a. Module 1: Lesson Analysis and Transformationb. Module 2: Transforming Your First Lesson for Implementationc. Module 3: Lesson Implementation

Completion of all three badges represents just over fifteen clock hours of professional development time (15.4 hours).

Getting StartedThe guide is divided into three Courses. Each Course is divided into Modules, and each Module has a

series of tasks to be completed. Throughout the Modules you will see list of resources and the icon where you need to view a video. All content and course completion instructions are located in the Resources tab under the icons shown below:

2

Page 3: Web viewGuide to Introductory Professional Development. ... badging platform that allows you to manage badges across all open badging ... 500 word essay addressing the

The icon denotes tasks that need to be completed toward earning the badge for the Course. Additional instructions for facilitated groups are in blue print. Every participant, whether working as an individual or as part of a facilitated group, should complete all of the tasks denoted with the icon. Facilitated groups have the option of including the activities provided in blue print.

At the completion of each Course and upon verification of the required tasks, you will receive an e-mail with a digital badge corresponding to the completed Course. NGI badges are issued through Credly using the e-mail address associated with your NGI account. Credly is an established and respected digital badging platform that allows you to manage badges across all open badging platforms. Additional information on how to access your Credly badges online will be included with each badge e-mail.

If you are facilitating a group, it will be important for you to view the videos and tasks as a part of planning for your sessions. Use as much or as little of the facilitator instructions as desired. Decide what you want to accomplish in each session. You may want to assign some work to be completed prior to your meeting, or view the videos and complete the tasks together. Estimated times are provided for each module, video, and task to help with your planning.

A spreadsheet is available to develop a class list and track completion of tasks. You will find the “Intro PD Tracking Tool” in Course 1 Resources.

You may also want to set up a “private” area for your teachers within the NGI Teacher Community for just your staff. To request this dedicated, private area limited to members of your defined group, contact us at [email protected] to request the creation of a private teacher area within the NGI Community.

Time to get started. Look over Course 1 so you get a feel for the layout, then start working through the steps. Complete as much or as little as you desire during a given session. You can always come back to your ending point at any time.
