- Growth Mindset - Why a growth mindset is so important! (continues into Session II breakout time slot) - Chris Van Hoof, CESA 8 Curriculum Instruction & Assessment Director
- Universal Design for Learning - Universal Design for Learning (UDL) is a scientifically valid framework that provides multiple means of access, assessment, and engagement and removes barriers in instruction to achieve academic and behavioral success for all. The Universal Design for Learning framework can provide educators with a structure to develop their instruction to meet the wide range of diversity among all learners. UDL is based on brain research that suggests a one-size-fits-all approach to education is not effective. There are three main principles of Universal Design for Learning: Access, Assessment, and Engagement. Universal Design for Learning is not one more initiative; the practices are embedded within other educational efforts in Wisconsin. Join Terry as he provides an overview of Universal Design for Learning. - Terry Hanson, CESA 8 Director of Special Education
- Preventing Reading Failure: Understanding Chall's Stages of Reading, Common Core ELA and the Failure Cycle - What's the difference between learning to read, reading to learn and English Language Arts; What are the distinctive features of each stage of reading?
