Title: Learning to Fish Takes a Team of Fisherpeople: Inspiring Adult Learning Success Through Community Outreach

Date: 3/22/2024

Time: 12:00pm – 1:00pm

Description: Sometimes, we are fortunate to have reliable community resources at our fingertips. But we must remember that our students’ needs are diverse, dynamic, and specific. In these moments, we may need to step out in the community to (re)introduce ourselves to partners and establish new connections. Let’s discuss methods for best practice outreach, creative and personalized approaches to partnerships, and lasting student and community engagement with your organization.

Title: Stop. Collaborate and Listen: Planning and Co-Teaching in Adult Education

Date: 4/16/2024

Time: 12:00pm – 1:00pm

Description: When we think about co-teaching, we usually think of the k-12 model, which pairs one general education and one special education teacher, with the goal of serving the most students in the least restrictive environment.  To attempt this in adult education seems impossible, with programs that often rely on volunteers and have limited funds. However,  much can be learned from the co-teaching model about how to best collaborate with our fellow teachers and tutors.  Spend a lunch with us learning about the different types of co-teaching models, the dos and don'ts of working together, and how this valuable practice can be adapted for adult ed teachers.

Presenter: Sarah Mills, Deputy Executive Director, CORE, The Learning Center

Title: Managing ASISTS Data and Reporting Through GED Manager

Date: 7/16/2024

Time: 12:00pm – 1:00pm

Description: GED Manager, as a stand alone database, is a great tool for reaching out to new students, assigning GED Ready Tests, and producing score reports to help guide student instruction. However, when used in conjunction with ASISTS, GED Manager can help ensure programs are getting well deserved credit for student HSE success. Join us for a short lunch-and-learn where we will explore best practices for utilizing GED Manager to help ensure accurate reporting and accountability in your program’s ASISTS data.
