Conscious Discipline Summer Institute

[stm_event_info]

Nothing can compare to attending an official Conscious Discipline event! The connections you make, the information you learn and the changes you experience at a live event are truly transformational!

It revolutionizes the classroom approach to social-emotional learning by addressing the adult’s skill set and internal states first, and then empowering the adult to teach and model these skills with children.

Both research studies and individual testimonials show that Conscious Discipline simply works for transforming social-emotional skills, school climate, academics and home/school connections. Stop struggling with behaviors and standards, and start finding the joy in teaching again!

What’s new:

  • Activities and assessments
  • Updated brain information
  • Updated skills and strategies
  • New sections addressing MTSS
  • Organized around safety, connection and problem solving for ease of application
  • Chapter summaries and implementation checklists

Auburn supports providing quality training for its teachers and staff surrounding the use of available technology within the district.

Next-Gen Higher Education Students – Have They Arrived?

[stm_event_info]

Next gen learning will take root more broadly than it is today when we focus on six dimensions—define, measure, design, implement, enable, scale.

NEXT GEN LEARNING

  • Personalized to the ways I learn best
  • Flexible so that I can try different ways to learn
  • Interactive and engaging so that I participate in the learning
  • Relevant to the life I’d like to lead
  • Organized around my own progress against goals I understand
  • Collaborative with teachers and peers, unlimited by proximity
  • Agile and supportive when I need extra help
  • Challenging but achievable, with opportunities to become expert in an area of interest
  • Available to me as much as it is to every other student

Only then will next generation learning help more students complete high school and college, at a reasonable cost.

Education School Technology Summit 2015

[stm_event_info]

The Technology, Innovation, and Education (TIE) master’s program is home to creative leaders in education – among both faculty and students. Together with outstanding fellow students from around the world, you will learn how to research and design new technologies and media that deliver powerful teaching and promote engaged learning.

Technology is the Means, Not the Mission 

Everything we do in the TIE Program is grounded in teaching and learning. The first questions are always, “Who are the users, and what educational challenges are they grappling with?” We don’t start with the goal of creating a sticky website, viral app, or immersive simulation. Instead, we choose the medium or technology that delivers the most effective learning experience for our specific goal. No previous computer science or technology experience is required to join TIE, only a passion for harnessing innovation and creativity to improve educational outcomes for all learners.

5-day “Critical Friends” Advanced Group Training

[stm_event_info]

Critical Friends Groups (CFGs) are the product of a simple idea; providing deliberate time and structures to promote adult professional growth that is directly linked to student learning. CFG’s provide educators and schools with specific tools, structures, and resources to support safe and effective collaborative learning linked to classroom practice.

Don't get your "Critical" friend

Of value to all leaders in education, facilitative leadership skills, built through participation in CFGs, engage school communities in work worth doing, foster a focused school community, and build a collaborative and reflective culture in schools.

CFG members are committed to making their practice public to one another, to being reflective, and to holding each other accountable for meeting the needs and interests of all students.

CFG members are committed to making their practice public to one another, to being reflective, and to holding each other accountable for meeting the needs and interests of all students.  Through critical friendship, educators share resources and ideas

Through critical friendship, educators share resources and ideas, support each other in implementing new practices, and build relationships among colleagues characterized by mutual trust and freedom from judgment, while keeping a keen focus on issues of equity.  They most often work in on-going, collaborative groups where they freely discuss each other’s practice with the intention of improving student learning.
