AEA PD Online: Agora. In Ancient Greece, the “Agora” was a central meeting place for community members. It featured public forums for ongoing conversations, as well as an exchange for the sharing of resources. AEA PD Online proudly sponsors the Agora, a 21st century digital counterpart to the Greek meeting place. In this online space, different communities can create a venue for social learning and all its benefits, including access for online conversations, professional development events, and sharing of resources. Where are the Agora communities? To centralize the communities, help with awareness and marketing, and encourage cross-pollination, the Agora is hosted on one platform. Currently, that platform is the AEA PD Online statewide Moodle server. Can anyone visit the Agora Communities? Absolutely. How can an organization or group create a community in the Agora?
