Agenda

Agenda:

Participants

For groups of 15- 150 the agenda will go as planned because participants will be broken up into small groups to work. With less than 15 people the agenda will become more personalized to the specific needs of the participants. For example, if the majority of the participants work with students that are English Language Learners then the main focus will be on strategies to support those learners and the workshop will be more whole discussion rather than small group.

Outcome

Participants will develop an implementation plan and will be able to offer other participants suggestions from their personal rolodex of best practices.
