OPENING PRESENTATION: Beyond Knowledge: What the Most Influential Educators Have in Common
Limited Capacity seats available

Give students knowledge and they will pass the exam, the course and the grade. But teach them to think and you have equipped them with a powerful tool to carry them through life. The best educators share one common belief: "We don't want to just transfer our ideas onto students; we want to enable them to generate their own ideas and solutions." This entertaining, insightful keynote presentation examines the need to strike that tricky balance between teaching so students make the grade and teaching so they make it in life. Faculty and administrators must be on the same page regarding what that balance looks like and how it fits into the group mission.  To get there, they will need the kind of influence it takes to get buy-in from busy peers, as well as the attention of time-pressed, socially stressed students.

Tired of SMART Goals, Try Some DUMB Ones
Limited Capacity seats available

According to the Pathways for Prosperity, when employers from around the world were asked what attributes they seek in employees, they listed leadership, teamwork, and initiative as their top skills. The problem of course is that because it is difficult to measure or put a grade on such skills, educators marginalize them in favor of content standards. Instead of the easy to measure content that meets the requirements of a SMART goal, but does not necessarily prepare children for the real world, the focus should be on the DUMB (Discipline/professional skills Used to Make students Balanced) goals. This will create people that can not only survive in the work force, but thrive because they possess skills that many of their contemporaries do not.

Climate to Culture: PBIS and TLC = Rocket Pride
Limited Capacity seats available

Wellston Middle School's efforts toward shifting a climate and culture have prompted success through a PBIS framework and an SEL program known as "Thriving Learning Communities" (TLC). With 2019-20 marking year 3 of PBIS implementation, and year 2 of TLC, evidence reflects a positive shift in climate, reduced discipline referrals, decreased attendance issues, and increased academic achievement. An instructional approach to discipline, an SEL program which builds kids up to help themselves and others through 24 Character Strengths and informed decision-making through discipline data tracking have resulted in a marked difference in "how this school does things." Fact: They control their climate by the way they treat each other.

Advisory: Where Social-Emotional Learning Meets Design Challenges
Limited Capacity seats available

Van Buren Middle School began the "advisory" initiative during the 2017-18 school year with many purposes in mind, the first being to build a culture where every student felt a meaningful connection to at least one teacher. Advisory is a mixed grade level group of students and one classroom teacher who meet once every week to build relationships through collaboration on long-term Design Challenges. The first challenge, called Future Cities, asked students to design a city from zoning to infrastructure to public services, with the aging population in mind. Last year's project connected advisories to local non-profits to raise awareness and funds for the cause. The school has faced many challenges but also celebrated many successes, which they are using to inform this year's advisory program.
