        • Step 3: Integrate teacher needs and wants into module creation.
          • What topics do they want to learn about?
          • Allow time to collaborate/share/discuss as a group

            • Let teachers create something and implement in their classroom
              • Have them share the creation
              • Let them come back and reflect. How did it go? What did you like/dislike? What else do you want to learn to help you more?

              • Step 6: Highlight their accomplishments with a badge (micro credentialing)
