Our guest blogger is Ms. Jill Newell, Manager of Professional Development for our national partner, the Association of American Educators:
ASTA members:
I hope that everyone will take advantage of ASTA's professional development workshop, Differentiated Instruction. This two-day program is a highly-effective and student-centered teaching concept focused on student assessment, learning profiles, tiered activities, curriculum compacting, learning contracts, independent study, flexible grouping, anchor activities, learning centers/stations, problem-based learning, and project-based learning.
As we get closer to the workshop I wanted to highlight some of the agenda. Please let me know if you have questions leading up to the event and I hope to see you there!
Day 1 Agenda:
- Introduction & Overview
- Assessment
- Break
- Learning Profiles
- Student Interests
- Student Readiness
- Lunch (Provided by Whole Hog)
- Low-Prep/ High-Impact Strategies
- Break
- Case Studies
We will be providing refreshments throughout the event. Don't forget the workshop accounts for 12 professional learning hours so invite your colleagues! Space is filling up!
