Webinars

Join author Hedreich Nichols to examine the cognitive processes we use to draw a circle around our “in groups,” and learn to mitigate any negative fallout that may impact our practice as educators. While learning about the brain science behind belonging, you will explore a few of more than 180 cognitive biases. This webinar will equip you to use this knowledge to look closely at personal connections and trends that impact student and staff relationships.

Today, more and more preK–12 students are dealing with increasing academic, social and emotional stressors. Students of all ages are becoming more dependent upon adults to help calm their emotions, complete challenging academic tasks, and resolve social conflicts that arise each day. There is just not enough time for the adults at school to help every child in need. Come see how one simple, evidence-based, metacognitive strategy develops every student into an autonomous critical thinker and problem solver across academic content areas and social and emotional contexts.

In this webinar, Jan K. Hoegh will provide information on how to design standards-based assessments that provide meaningful data to inform the next steps in an instructional cycle. Additionally, she will offer practical ideas for ensuring the technical quality of assessments, as well as suggestions for providing feedback to students that will foster improvement in their learning.
