The AVID Elective: Advancing Agency for Teachers and Students Community of Practice is designed to engage middle and high school educators serving as experienced AVID Elective teachers and AVID Site Coordinators. This Community of Practice will activate teacher agency to expand AVID Schoolwide, deepen awareness of refinements in resources, and provide opportunities for increasing student leadership, financial literacy, and service learning. Participants will practice strategies for coaching tutorial members before, during, and after tutorials. Each year, this course is revised with new content and may be retaken. All strategies, digital activities, and digital tools introduced in this Community of Practice can be leveraged in face-to-face or virtual learning environments.
