2024 ANNUAL PROFESSIONAL DEVELOPMENT INSTITUTE (PDI)
"Global CSI: Curiosity. Science. Inspiration."
November 14 - 16, 2024
DoubleTree by Hilton Williamsburg
50 Kingsmill Road, Williamsburg, VA 23185

“If you talk to a man in a language he understands, that goes to his head. If you talk to him in his own language, that goes to his heart.”
This quote by Nobel Peace Prize laureate, Nelson Mandela, has a direct bearing on the importance of global education. Virginia has the 34th largest school system in the United States (out of 13,200!) and our students come from all over the globe. Several of our districts have a vision to produce global citizens. In this era of post-pandemic concern for learning loss, we have a responsibility to help our students solve problems, develop working relationships, care for each other… and the world. By helping students explore cultures across all grade levels and disciplines, they will understand the perspectives of other people, develop empathy, increase their knowledge and become global citizens.
The 2024 PDI will explore science, of course… but I challenge you to use your own curiosity to look at science through a lens for inspiration as you view our interconnected world. THIS is global education…let’s begin! -- Lori Ann Pawlik - VAST President
