Welcome to the PACTA PIL:  Using Advocacy to Support Student Achievement

Registration

It is very important that you complete the PDE required Act 45/48 form as soon as possible.   This registration provides me with the PPID that is necessary to record your Act 45/48 hours.  It is the first assignment in t his PIL. 

Syllabus and Due Dates

This is the PIL program syllabus.  The due dates are meant to serve as a guide to keep you on track to completing the PIL by the end of the PIL session, which is May 1, 2020.  Please note your own schedule of work activities and responsibilities.  Some sections of this PIL might be completed early if you have other responsibilities that would impact your ability to complete an assignment by the due date.  In any case, all assignments must be completed and submitted by June 1, 2020. 

Navigating Canvas

For those of you who are new Canvas student-users, there is a 18 minute video that shows you most, if not all, of what you need to know about modules, submitting and checking your grades and assignments, uploading documents, and other aspects of Canvas.  It will save you time and effort in the long run to view it now if you are new to Canvas.
