Two Day To Two Week Courses for School Districts

Unlike many professions, teachers have the opportunity to start each year fresh. Beginning with new rules, procedures, fresh ideas, new teaching plans and a great attitude, they can begin immediately the first day and first week establishing a fresh relationship with their students—one that has the potential to grow, develop, and improve as the year progresses.

One way to help teachers change and improve is to use the summer break to prepare for a new school year with some new ideas and plans. Emphasis is on transition to student centered, student directed, hands-on learning and performance assessment, rubrics, cooperative and authentic learning, etc.

Since teachers tend to teach the way they themselves were taught; and since they are likely to have had many years of “traditional” schooling, these programs offer alternative teaching strategies that go beyond traditional practices.
