Professional development often struggles to create lasting impact, but micro-courses and digital badges are changing the game. This Mobile Mega Share shows how to design and implement scalable micro-learning experiences that help school leaders, faculty and staff build meaningful skills over time. Through relevant examples, you will see how to structure micro-courses, align them to school or district strategic priorities, and create badge pathways that recognize growth and mastery so professional learning is purposeful and measurable. You will also have guided time to start designing your own micro-course or badge pathway, including topics, outcomes and delivery methods, and to identify the stakeholders and champions needed to launch and sustain the initiative. Walk away with sample micro-course structures, badge pathway templates and implementation tools you can customize for your own faculty and leadership teams.
