SUMMARY:Boot Camp 2.0 - Building on Success
DESCRIPTION:Boot Camps have proven a worthwhile strategy in providing instruction for students who are one test away from a high school credential. For many of these students\, the focus has been on math. However\, we know that this strategy can and will work for other areas as well. This virtual session\, Boot Camp 2.0\, is designed to look at next steps and to look at some critical questions\, including\, but not limited to:\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n1) How do we define success?\n\n\n\n\n\n\n2) How has our enrollment criteria impacted both program and student success?\n\n\n\n\n\n\n3) What can we do to better target our curriculum to best meet the needs of our students?\n\n\n\n\n\n\n4) What testing strategies should we be incorporating into our curriculum to ensure students are prepared not just for the content\, but for the testing experience?\n\n\n\n\n\n\n5) What is the best way to ensure that we provide boot camps on an ongoing basis?\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nJoin us on Wednesday\, March 13 from 9:00 a.m. – noon for Boot Camp 2.0 – Building on Success. This will be an interactive session\, so be sure to bring and be ready to share examples of your own successes and challenges with Boot Camps.\n\nIf you have specific questions about content and logistics related to providing Boot Camps that you would like to see answered during this session\, please forward those to Susan Pittman\, skptvs@gmail.com.\n\nRegister for this session here: https://us02web.zoom.us/meeting/register/tZMuc–trjwiGdefnnVO5yEFUBeTY-M7FnoT\n\nAfter registering\, you will receive a confirmation email with information about joining the meeting.

SUMMARY:The Little Things You Can Do to Make a Big Impact on GED® Math Performance
DESCRIPTION:Content Session: \nThe Little Things You Can Do to Make a Big Impact on GED® Math Performance\nPresenter:  Ronald Allan Cruz\nDescription:  Sometimes the little things students ignore could mean the difference between passing or failing the GED® Mathematical Reasoning Test. This session will focus on what teachers need to pay attention to in terms of what students do during problem-solving exercises that could help significantly improve students’ performance on the test. This session will also suggest strategies to break those bad math habits and provide tips to sustain effective problem-solving practices.\n\nTopic of the Day: How can you break the cycle of those students who score between 140 and 144?\nPresenter(s): Kelly Dages (Fifth Theory)\, Ann Evers\, GED Testing Service\nDescription: Do you have a student that:\n\nGets a Green on GED Ready test but doesn’t pass the GED test?\nRepeatedly scores between a 140-144 on the GED test?\nWon’t schedule the GED test or does\, but then doesn’t show up for it?\n\nThe GED TestPrepped Coaching Program Course will teach you how to break these cycles.  \nThe program will help you identify non-academic skills where your students struggle such as\, Motivation\, Responsibility\, Confidence\, Resiliency\, etc. Learn how to\nwork with your students to build a successful test-taking mindset.

SUMMARY:ProLiteracy: “What are They Really Saying?” Helping Students Read Between the Lines and Make Inferences
DESCRIPTION:Students preparing for the HSE exams often focus too much on what’s explicitly present in a text. This may allow them to recall specific details and find evidence\, but it hinders them from making inferences and drawing conclusions. In this webinar\, learn how to help students dig deeper to make inferences about what’s being implicitly stated in the text. \nRegister \nThis webinar is part of the Teacher Training Plus series
