That’s why it’s so important to teach the ‘WHOLE STUDENT’ for success in school, college, demanding careers and beyond. Give your students the training they need to become better life-long learners and more productive members of society.

Are you seeking an innovative, research-based, Professional Development training experience for your staff that will teach them new pedagogical knowledge, tools, techniques and skills they DID NOT learn in college. This integrated skill set will raise student APTITUDE and ATTITUDES to higher levels of academic performance, reduce bullying and harassment, and increase valuable teaching time in the classroom by decreasing disruptions and distractions.

 

To improve APTITUDE, backed by more than 80 years of rock-solid research, your teachers will learn, step-by-step, how to use 21st Century Study Skills based on SQ3R to train students how to; study effectively from textbooks, store important information in their long-term memory and recall it during high-stakes tests.

Next, to improve student ATTITUDES please consider using my 2-hour Social Emotional Learning (SEL) course, also called Character Education, which I have been using for 15 years with rave reviews. It’s based on more than 50 years of research by well-respected educational leaders. It’s very interactive and motivates students to provide most of the important input from their own lives. As a result, the students take ownership of the results which makes a bigger impact on them. Also, teachers learn how to reinforce and enhance the social impact of SEL throughout the year by motivating students to model the most admirable characteristics they’ve identified as good leadership traits.  Click on this link to read a description of the course objectives and benefits: http://www.21stcenturystudyskills.com/sel.html

I am currently scheduling PD training for the 2023-24 school year.
