- LAFAYETTE, CO Inst: Eric Thompson
Last summer we ran this workshop course and had a really great time! I am hoping to run it again this summer. I wanted to get you the dates so you can plan vacations around this. Please email me back if you are interested in this course so I can get an idea on numbers or if you have any questions.
Course Overview
Traditionally, student success has been measured by grades and test scores. Studies have shown that these measures are no longer good predictors of success in the workforce. Because it is now common to switch jobs multiple times throughout one's life, success in the work world requires the perseverance and curiosity needed to consistently learn new job skills. People who can effectively communicate with new colleagues while collaborating to solve problems in creative ways will fare better than those lacking such skills. This class will involve many readings, discussions, and hands-on activities to help you teach for the future success of your students. You will learn how to emphasize the four C’s while fostering the grit and curiosity necessary for your students to live happy and productive lives.
EDUX9940 - Maximize Student Success Through Enhanced Instructional Design
Course Overview
Earn graduate level Semester Credits/Units as you prepare for the 2017-18 school year. Whether it is working with colleagues to create a blended learning course, integrating STEAM related lessons into the curriculum, taking the time to research and learn new software for Chromebook or IPad or locating and reading student non-fiction books to meet CCSS, what we need as professionals is credit for the time we devote to fulfilling our goals of being the best we can be in the classroom.
This summer, spend extensive time improving your teaching while you plan your 2017-18 school year curricula AND earn 2, 3, 4, 5 or 6 graduate level Semester Credits/Units!
