"Behavioral Studies for Educators"

Education by Design is a framework based on sound research, and clinical and educational experience. This framework is designed to give educators a reference point when working with students on matters that affect academic performance (RtI) and positive behavior in the classroom (PBS). We spend years in school developing our technical skills and knowledge to educate students. In a similar manner, understanding and developing our unique inter-personal skills are just as vital to success in the classroom. Studies by the Carnegie Foundation have shown that 85% of our success comes from successful people skills! These skills are developed through learning how to interact and communicate effectively with others.

“No Significant Learning Occurs Without A Significant Relationship”
Dr. James Comer


In these three days, you begin to take steps toward developing and facilitating the skills for strong team collaboration, meeting RtI and PBS objectives, raising student achievement and improving behavior in the classroom.
(21 Credit Hours or 2.1 CEU’s available)

Objectives:
1. Understanding yourself through your personality style.
2. Understanding another person within your Team, Small Learning Community and in the classroom.
3. Adapting your style to develop stronger team collaboration and increase academic results to meet RtI and PBS objectives.
