 oin the American Institutes for Research for a presentation and discussion
  on the growing inequality of opportunity in the United States and the imp
 act this has on both skills acquisition and outcomes for current and futur

 t of Adult Competencies (PIAAC)\, the presentation will explore the parado
 x for U.S. millennials (born after 1980\, ages 16-34): while they may be o
 n track to be our most educated generation ever\, they consistently score 
 below many of their international peers in literacy\, numeracy\, and probl
 em solving in technology-rich environments. Equally troubling is that thes
 e findings represent a decrease in literacy and numeracy skills when compa
 red to results from previous years of U.S. adult surveys. << REGISTER >> R

SUMMARY:*Extended Deadline for Florida Financial Literacy Initiative Grant*
 
DESCRIPTION:Grant Application Deadline Extended to August 27\, 2015 Financi
 al Literacy The Florida Literacy Coalition (FLC) is proud to partner with 
 Wells Fargo in establishing a statewide financial literacy program for stu
 dents in adult education/literacy\, ESOL (English for Speakers of Other La
 nguages) and family literacy programs. This initiative supports the integr
 ation of literacy and math instruction and financial education\, promoting
  a contextualized approach to learning. Financial education promotes stabi
 lity for individuals and their families. The more people know about credit
 \, banking services\, taxes and basic money management\, the more likely t
 hey are to increase savings\, buy homes\, save for education and improve t
 heir financial well-being. Not surprisingly\, people with a low level of e
 ducation often also have low numeracy and financial literacy skills. Basic
  financial skills education can be critical to helping such individuals ma
 nage their money and protect themselves from predatory practices. Grant Ap
 plication Now Available We are pleased to continue the Florida Financial L
 iteracy Initiative into its 2nd year providing grants to advance financial
  literacy in adult ESOL and family literacy programs. Through the generous
  support of Wells Fargo\, eight mini-grants of up to $5\,000 will be award

 Ev.aspx?PIID=ED58DB818249   Presented by Robyn R. Jackson\, Ph.D.\, Founde
 r and President of Mindsteps When we see students struggling\, our first r
 esponse is often to try to rescue them from that struggle. But\, not all s
 truggle is bad. In fact\, if you help students struggle the right way\, yo
 u can not only make them become better learners\, you can dramatically inc
 rease their motivation and engagement and empower them to take full owners
 hip over their own learning. The secret? You have to know the difference b
 etween productive struggle and destructive struggle. In this interactive w
 ebinar\, learn how to tell the difference between struggle that is product
 ive and fosters learning\, and struggle that is destructive and leads to f
 rustration and failure. Then find out specific ways you can foster product
 ive struggle\, and the exact approach you need to get students out of dest
 ructive struggle and break the cycle of failure.

SUMMARY:Unlocking the Learning to Build Resilient Learners in Correctional 
 Facilities (Martin County)
DESCRIPTION:Reading and writing skills in the ABE and ESOL classrooms don’t
  need to be kept separate. A strong correlation exists between the two. Ac
 cording to the research\, 'about 70% of the variation in reading and writi
 ng abilities are shared' (Timothy Shanahan 2017). Close reading has defini
 tely become the 'work' of our classrooms. But\, let's face it\, close read
 ing isn't often a skill that comes naturally. When our students get a new 
 reading assignment\, their first instinct is often to race to the finish l
 ine rather than engage deeply with a text. They often see that what they r
 ead does not have an impact on what they write. However\, as students beco
 me skilled readers\, they notice more than just the content of the text. T
 hey observe sentence and paragraph structures\, grammar\, variations in pa
 cing\, and recurring themes. When combined\, there are positive effects bo
 th in terms of students learning to read and in terms of students learning
  to write. Join the IPDAE trainers as they delve into deconstructing texts
  through close reading strategies.  This session will provide you with eng
 aging ways to teach close reading skills in your ABE/ESOL classroom\, as w
 ell as how to combine the writing process with each close reading lesson. 
 Plus\, this workshop will integrate ideas and resources based on the surve
 y questionnaire that you completed. Learn how to access the various IPDAE 
 matrix resources aligned to the TABE 11/12 and the College and Career Read
 iness Standards. Access sites that will assist you in aligning classroom a
 ctivities to the standards. Participate in activities using manipulatives 
 and multiple resources that you can use in your classroom immediately. All
  participants will also have access to the materials used in the workshop 
 through their IPDAE portal.   https://www.floridaipdae.org/portal/index.cf

DESCRIPTION:Join the Alliance for Excellent Education for a webinar on how 
 schools are using time differently to increase learning opportunities for 
 students\, such as opportunities for work- and project-based learning. In 
 putting these new models into place\, their architects recognized that the
  traditional seven-hour day and nine-month structure of schools impeded th
 eir ability to develop stronger learning environments. In response\, they 
 restructured the clock and calendar to provide more and better learning ti
 me for students. By doing so\, these innovative educators are achieving th
 eir goal of enhancing the learning environment for all young people. Panel
 ists will discuss how technology has supported increasing the amount of ti
 me students are engaged inside and outside of the classroom. Panelists wil

SUMMARY:Planning for Progress in Digital Learning: Introduction to the Use 
 of Time
DESCRIPTION:Please join the Alliance for Excellent Education on Thursday\, 
 March 14\, from 2:00 p.m. to 3:00 p.m. (ET)\, for the third in its series 
 of webinars for Project 24. This webinar will provide an introduction to o
 ne of the gears in the Project 24 framework: use of time. The Project 24 p
 lanning framework examines the extent to which student-centric learning re
 quires changes in the way instructional time is used and the system is abl
 e to adapt learning to meet the needs\, pace\, interests\, and preferences
  of the learner. This transition is made possible through innovative uses 
 of technology for (1) diagnostic\, formative\, and summative assessments\;
  (2) managing learning\; (3) engaging students in learning\; and (4) provi
 ding anywhere\, anytime learning. Such transitions require districts to re
 think and more effectively leverage the use of instructional time. The Pro
 ject 24 panel of experts\, an experienced group of nationally recognized l
 eaders with demonstrated records of success\, will provide insight into ho
 w they approach the use of time for digital learning from the perspectives
  of a superintendent\, chief technology officer\, principal\, and educator
 . They will also discuss key areas of this gear\, including flexible learn
 ing options\; new designs\, schedules\, pedagogies\, and learning environm
 ents that support personalized learning\; the role of competency-based lea
 rning or progression based on mastery\; and strategies for providing exten
 ded time for projects and collaboration. Bob Wise\, president of the Allia

 e findings from the ATLAS study\, implemented by UMass Amherst and World E
 ducation with funding from the Nellie Mae Education Foundation. ATLAS foll
 owed over 200 ABE-to-College transition course participants for five years
  to uncover the factors that influenced them in enrolling\, persisting\, a
 nd succeeding in college. The question driving this research was: What are
  the educational outcomes for adults participating in a transition- to-col
 lege course\, and what are the factors individual\, program\, institutiona
 l that influence these outcomes? In this study\, 220 adults were interview
 ed who participated in one of 11 ABE-to-College transition programs in fal
 l 2007 or spring 2008. We followed them for five years\, interviewing them
  each year\, asking them about their college status and about their indivi
 dual\, family\, and work lives\, to uncover the supports and barriers to e
 nrolling\, persisting and succeeding in college. Using both quantitative a
 nd qualitative data analysis\, this session will present the key findings 
 about transition course program features that support successful college t
 rajectories and findings about factors that help or hinder adult students 
 to go to college. After learning these findings\, participants will work w

 ers\, to learn how the flipped classroom model can help teachers gain more
  face-to-face time with students\, foster real differentiated or personali

 hare methodologies that worked for them and allowed students to explore de
 eper learning opportunities and pedagogies (e.g.\, PBL\, CBL\, UDL\, Maste

SUMMARY:What Would Immigration Reform Mean for Miami?
DESCRIPTION:Immigration reform promises to transform life in South Florida.
  For years Floridians hired\, educated\, and interacted on a daily basis w
 ith people whose legal status is uncertain. Bringing them into the system 
 could change Miami’s economy\, schools\, and politics as more people becom
 e able to start businesses\, pursue higher education\, and participate ful
 ly in civic life without fear of legal repercussions. New legislation coul
 d also help local businesses recruit and hire the workers they need. But i
 mmigration reform also poses potential challenges—from higher labor costs 
 to increased demand for already strained public services. Can Miami prepar
 e to become a post-immigration-reform city—and does the 1986 amnesty hold 
 any lessons for South Florida’s future? U.S. Congressman Mario Diaz-Balart
 \, TIME Magazine Senior National Correspondent Michael Grunwald\, Haitian 
 Women of Miami Executive Director Marleine Bastien\, and Miami-Dade County
  Chief Economist Robert Cruz visit Zócalo to discuss what immigration refo
 rm would mean for us all.  More information: http://www.zocalopublicsquare

SUMMARY:Meeting the Needs of English Language Learners Training - Jacksonvi
 lle
DESCRIPTION:Session A (9:00 - 12:00): Grammar in Your ELLs’ English Profici
 ency Description: Participants will begin with how grammar for native Engl
 ish speakers (what we studied in Jr. high and high school) is very differe
 nt from ESL grammar. The presenter will explain the 2 extremes of teaching
  grammar: (1) deductive\, where the teacher/book presents a grammar rule\,
  provides explanation\, and practices the material through exercises\; (2)
  inductive\, where the teacher/book provides multiple examples of the gram
 mar point in usage and students are to figure out what the grammar rule or
  pattern is. Session B (1:00-4:00): Improving Your ELLs’ Language Based on
  Real Needs Description: In this session\, participants will examine an ov
 erview of ESL language areas: grammar\, vocabulary\, pronunciation\, speak
 ing\, listening\, reading\, writing. The emphasis will be on how to incorp
 orate grammar into these skill areas while considering your ELLs’ actual l
 anguage needs. Participants will explore some specific ideas for teaching 
 vocabulary\, pronunciation\, speaking\, listening\, reading\, and writing.
  Note: Participants will receive a copy of Dr. Folse’s book\, “Clear Gramm
 ar I\, 2nd Edition.” Please use this link to register:  http://www.surveym

SUMMARY:Webinar- Making a Difference in Adult and Family Literacy: Is Hosti
 ng a Literacy Program a Good Fit for Your Library?
DESCRIPTION:Libraries are among America’s most democratic institutions—ofte
 n making available access to needed education\, information\, and lifelong
  learning opportunities. Many libraries have a significant impact on their
  communities by providing volunteer-based adult education\, literacy and E
 nglish language instruction. This is particularly true in rural areas with
  limited educational opportunities. Often with modest budgets\, libraries 
 have had an outsized impact on thousands of adult learners who turn to the
 m for support. Join us to learn more about library-based literacy programs
 \; what they do\, how they operate and how they measure success. Hear from
  several library system managers who are doing this well and how such serv
 ices have become an integral part of their library’s mission. Presenters:

SUMMARY:Fundraising with Performance Data
DESCRIPTION:Do you have the right program performance data? How do you leve
 rage it to your organization’s advantage? Join Isaac Castillo and Bridget 
 Laird to hear about successful ways to make data about outputs and outcome
 s compelling to funders. In the past few years\, Wings for Kids\, a small 
 organization in Charleston\, South Carolina\, has emerged on the national 
 nonprofit scene\, growing successfully despite the recession. The organiza
 tion’s programming grew 300% in the last three years\, was recognized as a
  “School that Works” by Edutopia\, and is in the midst of a four-year rand
 omized control trial. The out-of-school-time program teaches social and em
 otional skills to elementary school children\, with the expectation that t
 hose skills will keep them connected to school and prepare them for life. 
 CEO Bridget Laird shares how Wings for Kids’ strategy – combining diligent
  performance management in pursuit of positive outcomes for children with 
 innovative marketing – has driven its success. Isaac Castillo will speak t
 o how other organizations can learn from Wings’ approach. Janet Camarena w
 ill make closing remarks. This webinar is appropriate for senior leadershi

 00 – 4:00pm CT\, 4:00 – 5: pm ET REGISTER Description: Students often have
  to learn a great deal of information from charts\, diagrams or other visu
 al presentations. Not only do many have difficulty learning the informatio
 n\, but often they must answer questions about the visual information thro
 ugh questions that have no pictures. Students with learning issues especia
 lly often have difficulty making the transfer. (Example: The EMT student w
 ho passes all his practical\, hands-on test and can’t pass the state board
 s.) Dyslexia Research Institute has worked with students in developing a m
 ultisensorial study strategy that activates visual\, auditory and kinesthe
 tic senses which strengthens their memory and retention of the material an
 d how to apply this visual information to the “wordy” questions.  Particip
 ants in the webinar will not only watch the technique but will have an opp
 ortunity to also work through the technique themselves. The goals of the w
 orkshop are for participants to: 1) Learn a multisensorial memory strategy
  using VAAmKT for learning visual information\; 2) Apply this strategy to 
 science diagrams\, mapping skills\, flow charts and other visual mediums\;
  and 3) Learn a test taking strategy to help answer wordy questions relati
 ng to the visual information. A portion of the workshop will be presented 
 on YouTube and participants will be sent the link to the workshop. After i
 t is viewed\, a question and answer session will be held on the webinar. P

SUMMARY:Digital Chitizenship: Responsible Behavior in a Digital Society
DESCRIPTION:Are your students coming to class with their Ipods on? Do you f
 ind them texting when they're supposed to be working? Do you sometimes fee
 l like you're not getting through? Even though students are comfortable us
 ing technology\, they may not be using it appropriately. Sadly\, few socia
 l guidelines have been developed that help guide us to use digital technol
 ogies. Let's face it. Over the years we've all come to interact with each 
 other using tools such as text messaging\, Facebook\, Ebay and more. We ha
 ve\, in fact\, created our own digital society and have become digital cit
 izens. As schools and society become inundated with digital technologies\,
  there must be a structure that can teach our students and colleagues how 
 to act with respect to technology. What's appropriate and what's not when 
 using technology. This workshop will introduce you to the concept of becom
 ing a Digital Citizen and introduce the Nine Elements that make up a Digit
 al Citizenship program. We'll discuss issues like proper email etiquette\,
  communicating in a digital society\, buying and selling on the Internet\,
  legal issues dealing with copyright and plagiarism and many others. Come 
 prepared to learn! Trainers: Dr. Debra Hargrove\, Director\, Florida TechN
 et and Joan Luebbe\, M.A.\, TechNet Regional Trainer PLEASE NOTE THE FOLLO
 WING DEADLINES: Registrations WITH TRAVEL REQUESTS must be submitted by Mo

SUMMARY:Teaching about Clean Energy for Work\, Home\, and Community
DESCRIPTION:The clean energy sector represents a potential opportunity for 
 ABE students to enter training and career pathways in a variety of occupat
 ions – engineering/technical\, administrative\, customer service\, manufac
 turing\, skilled trades\, installation and maintenance - that can address 
 the growing workforce needs of the sector. Equally important is to help st
 udents become informed consumers\, citizens\, and advocates for products\,
  services\, and policies that develop strategies for increasing efficiency
  and reducing energy costs as well as helping to grow and sustain the clea
 n energy economy. Teaching about the challenge of our current energy use a
 nd global warming lends itself beautifully to curriculum integration\; you
  can teach math\, science\, GED skills\, and vocabulary. And students are 
 keenly interested. – Clean Energy Ambassador World Education\, in partners
 hip with Finding Earth Works\, designed the ABE Clean Energy Ambassadors p
 roject to address the misalignment between the potential opportunity offer
 ed by the emerging clean energy sector and the lack of information and exp
 osure afforded to the ABE field. The ABE Clean Energy Ambassadors project 
 was designed to provide clean energy industry background information\, key
  concepts and real-world industry exposure to participating program staff 
 and students. The project enhanced staff capacity to teach students about 
 clean energy and provide informed guidance on local clean energy career an
 d training opportunities.  Learn about the project activities\, 100-plus c
 urriculum resources collected\, and participating staff and student outcom
 es. Identify resources and tools you can use to investigate the potential 
 clean energy career and training opportunities in clean energy. Discuss th
 e potential for implementing a similar clean energy project in your region
  or program. This webinar would be particularly useful to you if: You are 
 an adult education program administrator\, teacher\, or a counselor/adviso
 r looking for ways to enhance both the STEM and career-readiness aspects o
 f your curricula and programming You are staff at a workforce development 
 organization charged with building industry awareness\, employer engagemen
 t and connections to training and education providers for low-skilled adul
 ts. You are state adult education administrators or professional developer
 s interested in models of professional development that engage employers a
 nd other industry and training stakeholders.   More information: http://co

SUMMARY:Uncovering Brain Injury in the Adult Classroom
DESCRIPTION:Students with brain injuries are not always apparent - you can'
 t tell because brain injuries are often subtle and often don't leave visib
 le scars. Could a brain injury be the underlying cause of a participant’s 
 inappropriate behavior\, academic challenges or employment challenges? Mor
 e than likely there are students in your classroom who have experienced a 
 head injury including wounded warriors (military veterans coming back to c
 ivilian life) who are returning to education as preparation for postsecond
 ary or employment. Learn the types and causes of brain injuries along with
  the challenges these injuries can create in the classroom for participant
 s and instructors. To address these challenges\, helpful instructional str
 ategies and resources will be presented and discussed. What brain injuries
  can lead to learning and behavioral challenges? How can I find out if a p
 articipant has a brain/head injury? What can I do as an instructor to supp
 ort the participant with a head injury and help them learn how to manage t
 heir learning and/or employment challenges? What resources can I use to he
 lp me help my students with head injuries? Presenter: Lori Leininger is cu
 rrently the Grant Coordinator\, a Certified Brain Injury Specialist (CBIS)
 \, and an ABE Teacher on Special Assignment (TOSA) for PANDA at the Sandbe
 rg Learning Center in Minneapolis\, MN. PANDA staff and consultants provid
 e support\, resources\, assistive technology\, instructional strategies an
 d much more for ABE staff throughout Minnesota in addition to the much acc
 laimed web site on disabilities with a Disabilities Manual for adult educa
 tors. Lori obtained her ABE licensure from the University of Minnesota in 
 l998 and an adult ESL certificate from Hamline University in 2002. She was
  certified by the Brain Injury Association of America in 2007 as a Brain I
 njury Specialist (CBIS). Lori has taught for almost 20 years including ele
 mentary\, adult ESL and adults with various disabilities\, specializing in
  brain injury. She has coordinated disability services in Minnesota Adult 
 Basic Education for PANDA since 1998. She is a member of the Board of Dire
 ctors for the National Association of Adults with Special Learning Needs (

SUMMARY:Structured Word Inquiry: Helping Struggling Students Make Sense of 
 How the Written Word Works - Webinar
DESCRIPTION:Date/Time:February 19th\, 2013 - 3:00pm PST Fee:$75.00 Descript
 ion: Recent reviews indicate that when morphology is targeted in intervent
 ion studies\, the general population of students benefits\, and that these
  effects are particularly strong for less able and younger students (Bower
 s\, Kirby & Deacon\, 2010\; Carlisle\, 2010\, Goodwin & Ahn\, 2010\; Reed\
 , 2008).  This two hour webinar provides participants with an introduction
  to the fundamental conventions of oral and written morphology. Participan
 ts will learn about this content by using practical instructional tools an
 d the structured word inquiry approach (Bowers & Kirby\, 2010) that can be
  used to work with struggling students of any age to support reading\, voc
 abulary and spelling knowledge. See examples of this instruction in action
  at this YouTube page by clicking here\, or the WordWorks Literacy Center 
 website. You will have the opportunity to ask questions and download the P
 ower Point presentation. Peter Bowers is a teacher\, researcher author and
  founder of WordWorks Literacy Centre (www.wordworkskingston.com). An elem
 entary teacher for 10 years\, Peter recently earned his PhD from the Facul
 ty of Education at Queen’s University. His research of the effects of morp
 hological instruction has been published in journals such as Review of Edu
 cational Research\, and Reading and Writing. Peter has conducted workshops
  on Structured Word Inquiry in Europe\, Africa\, Asia\, Australia\, the Mi
 ddle East and North America. He is a passionate educator who\, along with 
 colleagues at Real Spelling\, LEX and Real Spellers\, is part of a develop
 ing a community of learners who delight in making sense and meaning of Eng
 lish spelling through scientific inquiry. Peter’s book\, Teaching How the 
 Written Word Works expands on the lessons of his vocabulary intervention w
 hich used a structured word inquiry approach with morphological word sums 
 and matrices which found generative vocabulary learning for the experiment
 al group compared to controls. For an introduction to this work\, explore 
 the WordWorks website and YouTube page for examples of this instruction in
  action. See this short article\, co-authored with Gina Cooke (LEX) in Per
 spectives on Language and Literacy (the journal of the International Dysle
 xia Association) that places this instruction in the context of current re
 search and the Common Core States Standards. This article shows how the ba
 sic tools of this instruction\, the matrix and the word sum bring the long
  standing linguistic understanding of English spelling to classrooms from 
 kindergarten and up. More info: http://dyslexiatraininginstitute.org/dysle

SUMMARY:Celebration of Learning Seminar - Orlando
DESCRIPTION:Description: 9:30 to 11:00 a.m.- Using the Language Experience 
 Approach Effectively The Language Experience Approach (LEA) is one of the 
 most powerful tools to teach reading and build many skills because the lea
 rner is familiar with the reading materials – they come from the experienc
 e and language of the learner. This approach can be used with ABE learners
  at various levels (including those who cannot read at all) and with ESL l
 earners who can carry on simple conversations in English and who have made
  progress in understanding spoken English. Participants will practice one 
 of the language experience methods and also learn skills and lessons that 
 can be taught using learners’ language experience stories. 11:00 to 12:30 
 p.m.- Helping Learners to Develop Writing Skills Often because of past fai
 lures\, learners are especially reluctant to write. Participants will disc
 uss common barriers to writing for learners and how to overcome them\, eve
 n with students whose writing and spelling skills are limited. The worksho
 p will explore strategies and techniques to encourage learners to write mo
 re\, expand their writing skills\, assess their own writing\, and give fee
 dback on others’ writing. It is appropriate for tutors of ABE learners and
  ESL learners who can carry on simple conversations in English and who hav
 e made progress in understanding spoken English. FLC and ALL hope you’ll p
 lan on joining us for this wonderful event!  Cost is $10 For more informat

  with their Ipods on? Do you find them texting when they're supposed to be
  working? Do you sometimes feel like you're not getting through? Even thou
 gh students are comfortable using technology\, they may not be using it ap
 propriately. Sadly\, few social guidelines have been developed that help g
 uide us to use digital technologies. This workshop will introduce you to t
 he concept of becoming a Digital Citizen and introduce the Nine Elements t
 hat make up a Digital Citizenship program. We'll discuss issues like prope
 r email etiquette\, communicating in a digital society\, buying and sellin
 g on the Internet\, legal issues dealing with copyright and plagiarism and
  many others. Come prepared to learn! Description - With technology changi
 ng almost daily\, it can seem overwhelming and impossible to know where to
  start.  Get some of the “essentials” by immersing yourself in boot camp! 
  We’ll examine some very fun and easy-to-use technology items including Il
 luminate\, web-based resources\, webcams\, digital video cameras\, and mor
 e.  By the end of the session\, you’ll be even more technologically “in sh
 ape” than ever before!

SUMMARY:The Power of Peer Groups and Posses in College Success
DESCRIPTION:This Education Week webinar takes place on Wednesday\, June 4\,
  2014\, 2-3pm ET. The transition from high school to college can be daunti
 ng\, academically\, socially\, and emotionally - and often especially so f
 or students from minority groups who aren't well represented on many colle
 ge campuses. The Posse Foundation is a nonprofit organization based in New
  York that gives scholarships to diverse groups of students with strong le
 adership skills and sends them to selective colleges in 'posses' of 10. Th
 e idea is that the scholars can bond before they ever go to campus and the
 n can provide support to one another throughout their college years. The a
 pproach seems to work: While typical college graduation rates hover around
  57 percent\, about 90 percent of Posse scholars finish in four years. Joi
 n Education Week for this webinar featuring the founder of Posse and a pro
 fessor who came up with the idea of a STEM posse for students pursuing car
 eers in science-related careers. Presenters: Deborah Bial\, founder and pr

SUMMARY:Accelerating Blended Learning
DESCRIPTION:Join the Alliance for Excellent Education for a webinar with Th
 e Learning Accelerator (TLA)\, a nonprofit organization dedicated to jump-
 starting implementation of blended learning across the nation. Blended lea
 rning combines traditional face-to-face instruction\, usually offered by a
  teacher in a traditional school building with high-quality digital conten
 t\, including online instruction and other technological tools. In its mos
 t effective form\, blended learning personalizes the learning of each stud
 ent\, allowing opportunities for students to take both required and electi
 ve courses and create a portfolio of opportunities and paths to succeed. S
 uccessful blended learning also allows for competency-based progression th
 at empowers students to move at their own pace and advance only when they 
 have mastered content\; and uses technology to make implementation possibl
 e at scale. These three key elements of blended learning are what TLA focu
 ses on in its work. Scott Ellis\, The Learning Accelerator's chief executi
 ve officer\, will share the organization's story and broad national vision
  and efforts in school districts around the country. Tom Murray of the All
 iance will share his lessons learned from implementing blended learning at
  the district level and moderate questions submitted from viewers across t
 he country. To register for this event\, click here.

SUMMARY:NTEN's New Nonprofit Data Report and Connections with the State of 
 the Nonprofit Cloud Report- Online
DESCRIPTION:This year NTEN and Idealware conducted a survey of nonprofits a
 bout their relationships with data\, and what we found was a large dichoto
 my—either they were doing a lot with their metrics or not much at all. Too
  often barriers keep nonprofits from collecting and integrating important 
 data into their daily work. The barriers are familiar to those who work in
  and with nonprofits: not enough staff or time to collect or analyze this 
 data\; not knowing what data to collect or how to make use of it\; competi
 ng demands or conflicting reporting requirements\; money or technology lim
 itations. We also found that funders play an important role in both the ch
 allenges and opportunities for nonprofits regarding data for decision-maki
 ng. More information: http://www.nten.org/events/webinar/2012/11/29/nonpro

X-ALT-DESC;FMTTYPE=text/html:<p><span>This year NTEN and Idealware conducte
 d a survey of nonprofits about their relationships with data\, and what we
  found was a large dichotomy&mdash\;either they were doing a lot with thei
 r metrics or not much at all. Too often barriers keep nonprofits from coll
 ecting and integrating important data into their daily work. The barriers 
 are familiar to those who work in and with nonprofits: not enough staff or
  time to collect or analyze this data\; not knowing what data to collect o
 r how to make use of it\; competing demands or conflicting reporting requi
 rements\; money or technology limitations. We also found that funders play
  an important role in both the challenges and opportunities for nonprofits
  regarding data for decision-making.</span><br /><br />More information:&n

SUMMARY:Friends with Benefits: How Nonprofits Should Engage Millennial Volu
 nteers (Webinar)
DESCRIPTION:Millennials (generally accepted as those born from around 1980 
 to around 2000\,) make up the largest generation in U.S. history. They are
  also one of the most energized and active when it comes to volunteering. 
 At their youngest\, they are just now entering high school\, many with com
 munity service requirements. At their oldest\, they are working their way 
 up the corporate ranks\, participating in (and often demanding) employee v
 olunteer programs. This makes them an important group for nonprofits that 
 rely on the dedication of volunteers. In order to effectively engage Mille
 nnial volunteers\, however\, we need to know the answer to one very import
 ant question: WHY do they volunteer? In early 2012\, DoSomething.org\, one
  of the largest organizations in the U.S. for young people and social chan
 ge\, conducted a national survey on young people and volunteering. One fac
 t they uncovered was that 93% of teens say they want to volunteer\, but a 
 far smaller percentage of young people actually do volunteer. During this 
 webinar\, members of the DoSomething.org data team will guide you through 
 the findings of the study. You will learn why some teens and college stude
 nts volunteer and why some don’t. You will also gain insight into how to c
 lose that gap and engage Millennials with your organization’s work. What Y
 ou'll Learn:  What factors motivate Millennials to get involved in volunte
 ering What causes Millennials care most about Tips for how to engage young
  volunteers Who Should Attend:  Nonprofit volunteer managers Nonprofit pro
 gram managers Anyone who works with youth volunteers at a nonprofit organi
 zation Young engagement consultants Mor info: http://learn.volunteermatch.

SUMMARY:CASAS Listening  - Kissimmee
DESCRIPTION:Listening is a critical element in the competent language perfo
 rmance of adult second language learners\, whether they are communicating 
 at school\, at work\, or in the community. Through the normal course of a 
 day\, listening is used nearly twice as much as speaking and four to five 
 times as much as reading and writing.  Yet listening remains one of the le
 ast understood processes in language learning despite the recognition of t
 he critical role it plays both in communication and in language acquisitio
 n.  Additionally\, our students need to demonstrate mastery of this skill 
 by performing at incremental levels on the CASAS test.  We want to better 
 understand the process of listening and explore specific tasks and approac
 hes to more effectively teach listening

 nergy in the learning process. Everyone has experienced instances where th

 cases. As much as 10% of incorrect responses occur not from the lack of kn
 owledge\, but rather a lack of knowledge of testing and/or how to take a t
 est. Teachers are getting more knowledge into the student’s brain than tes

SUMMARY:Meeting the Needs of English Language Learners Training Series - Ga
 inesville
DESCRIPTION:Session A (9:00 - 12:00): Grammar in Your ELLs’ English Profici
 ency Description: Participants will begin with how grammar for native Engl
 ish speakers (what we studied in Jr. high and high school) is very differe
 nt from ESL grammar. The presenter will explain the 2 extremes of teaching
  grammar: (1) deductive\, where the teacher/book presents a grammar rule\,
  provides explanation\, and practices the material through exercises\; (2)
  inductive\, where the teacher/book provides multiple examples of the gram
 mar point in usage and students are to figure out what the grammar rule or
  pattern is. Session B (1:00-4:00): Improving Your ELLs’ Language Based on
  Real Needs Description: In this session\, participants will examine an ov
 erview of ESL language areas: grammar\, vocabulary\, pronunciation\, speak
 ing\, listening\, reading\, writing. The emphasis will be on how to incorp
 orate grammar into these skill areas while considering your ELLs’ actual l
 anguage needs. Participants will explore some specific ideas for teaching 
 vocabulary\, pronunciation\, speaking\, listening\, reading\, and writing.
  Note: Participants will receive a copy of Dr. Folse’s book\, “Clear Gramm
 ar I\, 2nd Edition.”   Please use this link to register:  http://www.surve

SUMMARY:Understanding and Implementing Formative Assessments
DESCRIPTION:Presented by Eileen Depka\, PdD\, Director of Continuous Improv
 ement and Assessment for New Berlin Schools in Wisconsin and author   In t
 his edWeb webinar\, Dr. Depka will present a 5-step process that captures 
 the purpose of the assessment cycle and will provide concrete examples.  S
 tep one is to clarify the target.  What do we want students to know\, unde
 rstand\, and be able to do? In step two\, we will determine the format and
  purpose of the assessment.  How will we know what students have learned\,
  understood and are able to do? After creating and implementing the approp
 riate assessment\, in step three we gather data and compare it to the targ
 et.  Step four: we closely examine students’ strengths and challenges\, an
 d then evaluate them. In step five\, perhaps the most important step\, we 
 work to close the gap between expectation and performance by employing dif
 ferent instructional approaches and materials\, based on what we have lear
 ned about our students.    Participants of the webinar will gain an unders
 tanding of the process\, how to implement it\, and a variety of ideas for 
 both formal and informal ways to assess students.   Click here to register

SUMMARY:Foundations in Learning- Reading Intervention for English Language 
 Learners (Webinar)
DESCRIPTION:English Language Learners have unique challenges\, and not all 
 come to the classroom with the same issues. Whether their native language 
 has rules that conflict with those of English\, or they are frustrated by 
 the ambiguities of English\, they require varied and systematic experience
 s in a safe learning environment to make a comfortable transition to Engli
 sh. Bob McMurray will describe the principles of Varied Practice\, why the
 y are applicable for teaching reading to ELL students\, and show examples 
 of using Varied Practice to teach reading. Marsha Allen will describe how 
 the Santa Fe New Mexico schools have applied varied practice how it has wo
 rked so effectively\, and how can you apply that knowledge to your distric
 t? More information: http://bit.ly/WbeRCq

SUMMARY:Managed Enrollment: Considerations for Planning\, Curriculum\, and 
 Program Impact
DESCRIPTION:Moving from an open enrollment system to managed enrollment in 
 Adult Basic Education and Literacy programs is a daunting proposition. Yet
 \, this shift in service delivery is critical as we look to implement core
  standards and prepare students for future careers. Managed enrolled uses 
 an improved framework that can build persistence and expedite learning gai
 ns. Students\, in need of structured learning and more in-class time\, are
  willing to sign-up for a specific period of time rather than an open-ende
 d obligation. Across the United States managed enrolled is taking lots of 
 different forms. As many mid and smaller size programs begin the change pr
 ocess there are so many issues that need to be addressed. This is the firs
 t webinar to begin the conversation at a national level and share ideas of
  both successes and challenges. If you are in the process of shifting to m
 anaged enrollment or if you need some ideas to jumpstart your process\, th
 is webinar is for you! Kim Olsen was an early implementer of management en
 rollment with over 7 years of managed enrollment experience. In this sessi
 on she will provide an overview of how one program transitioned from an op
 en-enrollment learning lab to managed-enrollment classes\, including: Usin
 g program data to make informed decisions about policies and structures. E
 ducating partners about the benefits of managed enrollment. Developing a c
 urriculum that maximizes the impact of managed classes. Assessing the shor
 t-and long-term impact of managed enrollment on program performance. Prese

SUMMARY:How to Set-up Quick Donate via Mobile Devices
DESCRIPTION:Do you wish your donors could use their phones to send money di
 rectly into your organization's account - with a single click? Fundraising
  professionals are under pressure to find new ways to take advantage of th
 e fact that mobile has changed their donors' online lives. Emails are incr
 easingly received and read on phones but the conversion rates are undermin
 ed by the difficulty of filling out forms on small devices. And how can we
  get away from the low return on 'text to give'\, and still make use of th
 e strong response inherent in SMS communication? Blue State Digital has co
 me up with an innovation that we believe will allow you to create a strong
 er-than-ever digital relationship with your donors. BSD Tools' Quick Donat
 e allows secure online donations with a single click. Partners in Health i
 s one of the early adopters of this technology. Learn more about it\, and 
 hear from PIH why they chose to take part\, and some early results.    In 
 this webinar\, participants will: Learn the capabilities of Quick Donate U

SUMMARY:Unlocking the Learning to Build Resilient Learners in Correctional 
 Facilities (Washington County)
DESCRIPTION:Reading and writing skills in the ABE and ESOL classrooms don’t
  need to be kept separate. A strong correlation exists between the two. Ac
 cording to the research\, 'about 70% of the variation in reading and writi
 ng abilities are shared' (Timothy Shanahan 2017). Close reading has defini
 tely become the 'work' of our classrooms. But\, let's face it\, close read
 ing isn't often a skill that comes naturally. When our students get a new 
 reading assignment\, their first instinct is often to race to the finish l
 ine rather than engage deeply with a text. They often see that what they r
 ead does not have an impact on what they write. However\, as students beco
 me skilled readers\, they notice more than just the content of the text. T
 hey observe sentence and paragraph structures\, grammar\, variations in pa
 cing\, and recurring themes. When combined\, there are positive effects bo
 th in terms of students learning to read and in terms of students learning
  to write. Join the IPDAE trainers as they delve into deconstructing texts
  through close reading strategies.  This session will provide you with eng
 aging ways to teach close reading skills in your ABE/ESOL classroom\, as w
 ell as how to combine the writing process with each close reading lesson. 
 Plus\, this workshop will integrate ideas and resources based on the surve
 y questionnaire that you completed. Learn how to access the various IPDAE 
 matrix resources aligned to the TABE 11/12 and the College and Career Read
 iness Standards. Access sites that will assist you in aligning classroom a
 ctivities to the standards. Participate in activities using manipulatives 
 and multiple resources that you can use in your classroom immediately. All
  participants will also have access to the materials used in the workshop

SUMMARY:[ProLiteracy Webinar] Perspectives on Persistence: A Review of the 
 Research
DESCRIPTION:This webinar will address the ongoing issue of learner persiste
 nce in Adult Basic Education (ABE). How practitioners define and view pers
 istence will inform the actions they take. We will consider different ways
  to define persistence (for example\, whether measured by number of hours 
 attended\, attainment of a goal\, or over the life of the learner) and dis
 cuss two prominent perspectives on persistence issues: a control/prevent p
 erspective and an acknowledge/accommodate perspective. While there is no s
 imple formula for improving learner persistence\, in this webinar we will 
 discuss strategies reported in the research literature\, then participants
  will discuss how they might develop an approach to addressing learner per
 sistence. A Review of the Research is a series of webinars sponsored by Pr
 oLiteracy that examines important issues in adult education. Each webinar 
 begins with a review of the research\, then provides an opportunity for pa
 rticipants to explore how they can implement research recommendations in t

SUMMARY:Free Webinar: Writing Strategy Instructions For ESOL Learners
DESCRIPTION:We know our learners have compelling\, personal narratives\, an
 d many have the speaking skills required to share their stories or make an
 d support a claim. But do they have the strategies that allow them to put 
 their stories and ideas in writing? How can we best coach our learners so 
 that they can take on the challenge of writing clearly and coherently? In 
 this Webinar\, we’ll explore the direct instruction in writing strategies 
 that ESOL learners need to take their written work through the planning\, 
 drafting\, and finalizing stages. Tools such as graphic organizers\, check
 lists\, models\, frames\, and rubrics do double duty: first as the basis f
 or our direct\, explicit\, and systematic writing instruction and then as 
 the supports for learners when they write independently. We’ll also look a
 t the brain science on feedback and provide tips to make the feedback proc
 ess more successful. By the end of this Webinar\, you will be able to: eng
 age learners in pre-writing activities to organize and plan their written 
 work\; use models\, frames\, and checklists to provide direct instruction 
 in writing strategies\; and provide learners with templates for peer and s
 elf-editing. Presenter: Jayme Adelson Goldstein\, ESOL Professional Develo
