A Lunch and Learn designed with Jamie Winchell about increasing student participation using technology.
At Leyden, I organized literacy PD for the entire department with Professor Mike Manderino from Northern Illinois University. [Dr. Manderino is now the Assistant Superintendent for Curriculum and Instruction at Leyden 212.] This program was in response to a Needs Assessment that I had provided to the Department, and our goal to increase literacy and writing skills for students across our curriculum.
