Your answer to online educational consulting |
Who Are We? MDJ Dickens, Ltd. is a publishing, consulting, and collectibles firm made up of educators with many years of experience both in teaching a variety of subjects, K-12, and in guiding undergraduate and graduate students to productive careers in educational arenas. MDJ Dickens, Ltd. provides online professional development designed for the specific needs and interesets of your classroom, your discipline and your district. We wil provide you with immediately useful approaches to your classroom and district issues that are tailored to your concerns and available on your schedule.
Why choose us? The one-shot, quick-fix approach to professional development has failed again and again. To make any innovation work, educators must feel comfortable with it and see its potential for success repeatedly to be convinced to change from what they've always done to what has been proven successful with today's students. Don't hire consultants to travel to your district for the one-shot inservice day approach. Instead, let us provide one-to-one, online guidance from your home or school when you need it, as often as you feel it necessary, to bring real change to your teaching. We can provide individual e-mail consulting, chat room sessions tailored just for you, and consultation through threaded discussion boards reserved for your group only. MDJ Dickens, Ltd. is a group of practicing educators who know how frustrating it is to want meaningful professional development but get band-wagon presentations. We know you don't have time to waste, so grap a cup of coffee, sign on, and let's get started. Bonus! Two of our members use their spare time (What is that?) in the pursuit of sports collectibles. They make unique, hand-crafted, beautifully oiled frames with the posters of those sports stand-outs you want to make part of your own collection or that you may want to present as special gifts to special people. |
