Join CoLab, an online community just for educators.
Explore CoLab with Abbott Elementary!
Schools that use CoLab are giving their teachers professional autonomy to find the specific tools, resources, and people they need to thrive. They want to stop pushing one-size-fits-all PD opportunities and start nurturing individualized learning paths so staff are empowered to reach their goals and become the best educators they can be.
Further, they are committing to building their organization's capacity and culture to try new things, fail, get feedback, try again, play, grow, and celebrate all types of milestones along the way! 🎊
Say goodbye to disorganized Facebook groups, one-off PD days, and inefficient professional growth strategies.
Connect with teachers within and beyond your school 24/7 and share best practices, ideas, feedback, and tips.
Stop reinventing the wheel or paying for resources out of your pocket.
Leverage open-source resources from other qualified teachers and choose the iteration that supports your curriculum goals and student learning outcomes, without making edits!
Instead of searching high and low for mentors, co-teachers, and cheerleaders, quickly find other educators who can support your exact needs.
Forge meaningful relationships that will enable you to thrive in your role.
Leverage collaborative tools and spaces to divide and conquer your professional responsibilities.
With a team at the ready, you will reclaim time and energy to dedicate to your students and other important facets of your job.
