Streamline your training—go directly to students in the context of a lesson. |
|
| |
The problem with most training processes is that each step is a potential
fall-off point within your over-all plan. |
|
| |
|
|
| |
Are you running into any of these training challenges?
- All of the PD days are already reserved
- You can't afford subs while teachers are trained
- Teachers aren't prepared to take the next steps even after training
|
|
| |
Then you may be ready for a direct-to-students approach! |
|
| |
Circumvent a few of those inherent pit-falls and have immediate impact on students and teachers by training them together!
|
|
| |
The Direct-to-Students Training Approach: |
|
| |
- Is the fastest way to get students up and running—they're digital natives so they catch on immediately
- Saves everyone time—it's done during the school day so there's no after-school time or PD days necessary
- Saves money—no substitutes needed
- Removes the pressure from teachers—they don't have to be the expert
- Supports a student self-advocacy approach

We've created a checklist for Direct-to-Student PD that you can
download. The PDF also includes a sample comprehension lesson in the
context of SOLO® to use as a model for your own training.

Quotes from participants!
"This student focused training was very effective. The kids were engaged
and saw the relevance of the software to their lives. This led to a
cascading effect; student focus led to student buy-in, which of course
led to teacher buy-in."
Paula Gumpman, AT Coordinator, Knox County Schools, TN

"I got to experience the Student Coaching Workshop today with my
students. I saw some of my students do things that they've never done.
This is great, us learning together!"
Laura Martin, Holston Middle School, Knoxville, TN
