InFused is an embedded professional development model that allows teachers to observe model lessons that demonstrate the integration of technology learning tools into everyday classroom practice. She talks about the inspiration for the model, and how building on the work of other school districts has allowed Evergreen to leverage the limited number of support staff to engage students and teachers in classrooms.
