Program: Instructional Support/School Improvement
Audience: Teachers, Administrators
Dates: 8/21/2024
Every day, every student in every school will have their brain with them. What if every teacher better understood how this organ of learning works, learns, changes, and thrives?
The science of teaching and learning is the most promising research to elevate current and future teacher effectiveness, student achievement, and the whole child's school experience. This workshop provides a pathway for elementary, middle, and high school teachers and leaders to understand better the most promising principles, research, and strategies in Mind, Brain, and Education (MBE) science. Participants will consider what MBE research and strategies could mean for each student's academic, social, and emotional achievement and development in their classrooms and schools.
Participants will leave this workshop with a new lens to think about their instructional design and work with all students using MBE research-informed next-day strategies, resources, and tools.
