Furlong, PA -- (SBWIRE) -- 09/12/2018 -- The Teacher's Academy, an organization offering professional development courses to teachers across Pennsylvania, is helping educators facilitate better online safety in their classrooms. With every new school year, many students take their first steps into the practice of digital research. The simplest mistake in a search query could result in viewing material that can have a significant impact on a young person who has yet to see some of the more graphic content the Internet contains.

As students begin to spend less time in libraries and more time in the online space while conducting research, it becomes increasingly important to ensure they remain safe while doing so. For this reason, The Teacher's Academy is encouraging teachers to be aware of students who may be doing online research for the first time, and the great responsibility that online research entails.

The Teacher's Academy is offering a course titled "Internet Research, Cyber Safety, and Social Media," which details the dangers of searching for research topics online and how to navigate the web safely. It also details how to find the best sources while remaining protected from the more dangerous areas of the Internet. This, in turn, helps students recognize reputable websites and distinguish between them during online research.

Teachers seeking professional development hours in Pittsburgh who wish to take the "Internet Research, Cyber Safety, and Social Media" class can sign up here. The class is a 15-credit hours course. For topics and classes beyond cyber safety, The Teacher's Academy offers professional development courses for teachers in Pittsburgh who need credit hours in Pennsylvania to reach their continued education requirement.

Furlong, PA -- (SBWIRE) -- 08/09/2018 -- The Teacher's Academy is a great resource for individuals looking for professional development courses for teachers in Philadelphia and surrounding areas. They offer Act 48 Approved courses to help fulfill the 180 hour requirement for teachers in the state of Pennsylvania. The Teacher's Academy is passionate about providing courses for teachers that improve the education experience of their students and improve the overall awareness of teachers everywhere.

One way that The Teacher's Academy believes educators can help improve their students' ability to learn is by fostering a safe, and positive learning space. Teachers can do this by staying approachable and positive while implementing habits of cleanliness and displays of artwork into their classrooms. While these options will help students feel more comfortable in the classroom, there is one thing that follows them everywhere — technology.

Technology is great for learning and engaging, but it also has its downsides. Children can experience bullying more consistently now, and it can no longer take place exclusively in the classroom. Cyberbullying is a major plight of the twenty first century and affects countless numbers of students across the United States. Teachers need to be aware of this relatively new advancement in bullying and how to prevent it.

The Teacher's Academy's course on Cyberbullying Facts and Prevention fulfills 15 hours of the Act 48 requirement and is in line with CCSS.ELA - Science and Technical Subjects Common Core Standards.

As an approved provider of professional development courses for teachers in Pittsburgh and throughout Pennsylvania, The Teacher's Academy is a valuable resource for educators looking to bolster their credentials and maintain accordance with Act 48 regulations.

By offering certified educators a variety of courses to affordably and efficiently satisfy professional development requirements, The Teacher's Academy is focusing on foundational learning objectives to serve as a basis for enhanced learning potential and, in turn, a more rewarding teaching experience for the teacher.

The focus then shifts to the practical before, during and after reading strategies that further engage the learner during the reading process. Participants will also develop a framework for supporting reading in the content areas and creating an instructional toolkit that can be used to increase student comprehension.

In Story Maker Reading Strategy, a 3-hour course, the story maker activity is explained as a teaching strategy used to build and retain reading comprehension skills and vocabulary. By helping to stimulate interest, enhance vocabulary comprehension, and inspire curiosity in literature before a student starts reading it, the Story Maker Reading Strategy course can equip teachers with an excellent tool to spark a child's imagination and encourage their engagement with the learning process.

Providing certified professional development hours for teachers in Montgomery County, the state of Pennsylvania, and several other approved states, The Teacher's Academy aims to encourage a renewed focus amongst teachers to innovate within the classroom, and remain cognizant of the countless ways students learn and grasp the English language.

Those interested in either the Critical Thinking and Literacy Strategies or Story Maker Reading Strategies classes can review the course descriptions and explore other course offerings.

Options include an introductory course to help with basic computer skills, courses that focus on Microsoft Office products, and even a course that explains how to create videos in Windows Movie Maker.

"Computers: The VERY Basics" is for teachers who have little computer knowledge. They will learn the parts of a computer, a desktop, and an email interface.

Several courses provide instruction on how to use Microsoft Word, Excel, and PowerPoint.

Furlong, PA -- (SBWIRE) -- 03/28/2018 -- The Teacher's Academy offers Act 48 approved online courses for teachers in Pittsburgh and across the state of Pennsylvania that are great for the springtime. Popular professional development courses include: Creating a School Garden, Move to Learn, and Mindfulness in Education. Teachers looking to meet their Act 48 requirements will find that these courses also have relevant applications to their classrooms, especially during this time of the year.

Creating a School Garden demonstrates how class gardens can connect to existing curricula and encourage curiosity in students. No matter where their school is located or how much space is available, interested teachers can plan and design a customized school garden with the help of this 15-hour course.

Move to Learn introduces overwhelming scientific evidence that aerobic activity is essential to learning. Regular movement can improve academic performance and lessen behavior issues, and children need one hour of intense aerobic exercise every day. Unfortunately, some schools are cutting gym and recess. In this course, teachers will test their memory after mini-exercise bursts, write a proposal to administrators advocating for more physical activity, and revamp an old lesson plan to include movement and exercise.

Mindfulness in Education introduces teachers to the scientifically-proven benefits of mindfulness, a practice which develops compassion and self-awareness through techniques such as meditation, contemplation, yoga, gratitude, and reflection. Teachers who choose this course will keep a mindfulness journal, establish a mindfulness practice, and write a lesson plan that is influenced by what they have learned about mindfulness.

Teachers who need Act 48 course hours in Philadelphia and elsewhere in Pennsylvania can complete these online courses at their own pace and on their own schedule. These courses are all written by active teachers and are updated periodically based on feedback.

Furlong, PA -- (SBWIRE) -- 02/15/2018 -- The Teacher's Academy, an accredited organization that provides teachers with Act 48 hours online for teachers in Philadelphia and across PA, offers several online courses to promote creativity in the classroom. These courses, which are written by active school teachers, educate participants on how to engage different types of learners through differentiated learning and how to bring new life to old lesson plans.

One course, "Universal Design for Learning," demonstrates how to design effective lessons for all learners, rather than teach to the "average" student. This class will challenge the concept of "average" learners, which leads to a lack of enthusiasm, missed goals, and thousands of dropouts. It will show how redesigning lessons to meet extreme learners allows one to reach all learners. As part of this six-hour course, learners will redesign a lesson plan using Universal Design Learning principles and then give a presentation on this unique learning concept.

Another course, "Integrating the Arts in the Classroom," is an in-depth, 18-hour course that encourages participants to find the artist in themselves and in their students. They will work to create a personal definition of art based on interviews with an artist, another student, and the course text. They will also complete a graphic organizer to help find their inner artist and then use art to share research and write an essay outlining ways to advocate for an integrated arts program in their own school. Finally, these teachers will design an art-integrated lesson to use in the classroom.

Anyone who needs Act 48 online courses in PA can contact The Teacher's Academy to find out about this organization's convenient, affordable, and innovative courses. Visit their website at http://www.theteachersacademy.com/ or call 215-660-4926.
