The goal of this Interactive Qualifying Project (IQP) was to design a professional development (PD) providing K-4 teachers with the expertise to navigate the Reading and Math Explorers™ (RME) website. The team researched learning, interactive technology, and professional developments, which helped them create a PD. Participants provided feedback stating the PD was effective. Teachers gained skills to utilize RME as a resource, which they plan to implement in their classrooms. Results of this IQP are beneficial to interactive PD facilitators.
