Train-the-trainer: Industry2Classroom Teacher Preperation Pipeline

Posted by Jamie Chandler on October 13, 2010 in Uncategorized with No Comments


One thing great teachers have in common, no matter what they teach, is skill. They make accommodating 30 or more different learning styles and multi-level instruction within one classroom look like a walk in the park. But upon closer examination, you’ll learn that these great teachers are well-prepared, well-organized, and skilled at facilitating discussion, independent and group learning around meaningful subject manner. Terrific teachers know how to create a lively teaching environment, one that welcomes students to bring their prior knowledge with them to new and stimulating learning experiences.

Industry2Classroom Train-the-Trainer does not aim to bring you from zero to hero in just 2 days, but will equip every participant with helpful information, strategy, theory and real-world instructional practices that can be brought back and shared with others at your school.

Offered November 1-2, 2010, please click here for more information.
