Professional learning that begins with questions, not prescriptions.
Rosalba works with early learning programs, schools, educators, pedagogical leaders and community organizations to create professional learning experiences grounded in inquiry, reflection and lived practice. Rather than offering one-size-fits-all training, the work can begin with the questions, tensions and possibilities already present in your community.
Professional Learning
Professional learning can be offered in person or online and may take the form of a single session, a series, an immersive hands-on experience or an ongoing learning relationship. Sessions can be adapted around the questions, audience and context of your learning community.
Consulting & Mentoring
For programs and leaders who want to move beyond a single session, Rosalba offers consulting and mentoring that creates time to examine practice more closely. The work is collaborative and responsive to the realities of each setting.
Study Groups
Study groups create a slower space for collective thinking. Through shared readings, documentation, dialogue, observation and reflection, participants stay with an idea over time rather than rushing toward a conclusion.
Professional Learning Workshops
Rosalba offers workshops for educators, leaders and learning communities. Sessions may be offered in person or online and adapted to your context.
