#iTDi – The future of professional development is here

I am so very excited about the buzz iTDi has created. Can’t wait to see this great initiative unfold and turn English language teachers’ professional development into a truly community experience.

Thanks to Chiew for posting this brilliant short video with Scott on his great blog. (Nominated for the #eddies11, please vote for it if you have a minute).

What is iTDi and who is it for?

Online is not only a means of delivering content but more importantly: “creating a kind of community of like-minded teachers who are dedicated to their own professional development”. (Scott Thornbury, co-founder of iTDi)

    What a wonderful description you’ve given, Tamas! I’m so excited to see iTDi get off the ground so we can really work to make this the kind of nurturing and empowering professional community we all envision.

    Thanks for being part of it all!

    Thanks Barb,
    You guys have done all the fantastic ground work and I can’t wait to get my teeth into it and contribute more to this fabulous initiative, which will – I believe – turn teacher education upside down. Thanks for the opportunity to be part of this great group of educators.
