Have It Your Way: Teaching the Way They Learn

In our classrooms, we recognize that most teachers teach the way they learn. Given this fact, the students who are most successful in their classrooms are the students who learn in the same manner their teachers learn. Educational institutions which are concerned about bolstering student achievement for ALL students must implement strategies to meet the needs of all students regardless of their learning style. This workshop will assist instructors integrate instructional strategies which are tailored to the learning styles of their students. The workshop is grounded in the Multiple Intelligences theory pioneered by Dr. Howard Garner, a renown professor at Harvard University, who encouraged teachers to discover how their students learn and use that data to meet the instructional needs of their students. Participants will be administered a Multiple Intelligence Assessment, analyze the data, discover instructional strategies to meet the diverse needs of their students, and review other strategies to boost student achievement.

School Safety in a Post Pandemic Environment

The pandemic required everyone to make prescriptive and deliberative changes to the way we interact with one another. These changes exacerbated challenges which already existed within our culture as it related to social skills development and our interactions with our peers and persons in authority. However, its impact was more dramatic with persons who were suffering from the effects of social isolation prior to the pandemic. The protective measures recommended and, in some cases, required by our schools have caused many of those students to become more resentful, unstable, and reclusive. These challenges have given rise to a marked increase in school violence in just a few months to include school shootings, acts of aggression, and disrespect towards teachers and students. This session will give our participants a look inside the minds of these students and help them develop the skills and tools necessary to address, assist, and alleviate the consequences of potentially destructive behaviors.​

As a result of attending this session, the participants will be able to:

​

  • Identify the consequences of pandemic protective behaviors, namely social isolation

  • Recognize characteristics of social isolation
