What's New - Updates from the ELL-U Community
Two new ELL-U "quick study" Study Circles are being offered this month.
The ELL-U "quick studies" offer users quality professional development in a one-session online Study Circle! Through these learning opportunities participants can earn a certificate of completion in an effective and efficient moderated session. Quick studies are a single session study circle that offer users the chance to interact with others, follow-up on course topics, and delve deeply into how to motivate and engage learners using strategies from the course.
