Promoting Connectedness & Relevance
Subject matter that is irrelevant and meaningless is easily ignored as simply…noise. The good news is that this training teaches you how to end the “myth of the struggle.”
Making curriculum relevant gives your students a chance to attach meaning and value to what you teach. Strategies that help students find their voice and explore your subjects are extremely valuable. Synectics, connecting relevant terms through visual and auditory methods, are some of the ways we help our students attach value and meaning to what we teach.
