Fairfax County Public Schools adopted the “Portrait of a Graduate” initiative in 2014. Since then, Portrait of a Graduate, or POG, skills are at the center of teaching and learning in FCPS. POG skills will empower students with 21st Century skills for the workplaces of the future. To support teachers, I created, wrote, and maintained a blog with resources, ideas, and encouragement.
POG Blog Walk-Through
Fairfax County Public Schools uses a “walled garden” approach to sharing content. Links to sites and documents are not viewable outside of the school system. This walk-through is an example of asynchronous teacher training and curated resources for staff development.
