2012 Cray Academy
This workshop will focus on combining these two models to address two of the biggest challenges faced by educators today: developing rigorous curriculum aligned with standards and ensuring academic success for all students. Bringing the models together will provide strategies for the four basic elements in effective classrooms: student diversity, positive learning environment, quality content, and effective instruction and assessment. Participants will be provided with a variety of activities and materials to take back to their classrooms and use in any content area.
