What kind of support is going to be provided to schools to allow them to fully implement the Iowa Core?
The Iowa Department of Education and area education agencies (AEAs) have collaborated to establish a network of individuals who will provide support to schools. The network is designing professional development opportunities for educators on the knowledge and skills they will need to implement the Iowa Core with fidelity. Assistance includes tools for professional development. Resources are available through the local area education agency and an Iowa Core moodle, http://moodle.aeapdonline.org/ Please read the entire front page before trying to log in for the first time.
