P.E.T. School-wide Improvement Program
In the P.E.T. School-wide Improvement program, P.E.T. is implemented school-wide, thereby equipping teachers of core academic subjects to differentiate instruction to better meet their students’ learning styles and empowering students to become self-directed learners by helping them understand how they can learn most best. In addition, P.E.T. enhances teacher professional development by providing teachers with insight into their own teaching style as well as strategies on how to engage students with differing learning styles most effectively.
“How has P.E.T. impacted my teaching? In a number of ways. First, by being aware of differences in how my students learn, I find it is much easier to create activities that allow everyone to have success. I now create assignments and projects that are presented in a variety of ways and can be completed in myriad formats. By being aware of differences in how my students learn, I find it is much easier to create activities that allow everyone to have success.”
