The college readiness retreats are designed for faculty who teach pre-college (Adult Basic Education or Developmental Education) courses.

We encourage participants to attend with a  teaching partner or team.

I-BEST teams are encouraged to attend.

Registration fee is just $55 – the remainder of the cost is subsidized by the SBCTC.

Join us to:

·         Learn more about coaching students to think analytically and take charge of their own learning

·         Learn from successful team-teachers – what works when collaboratively designing and delivering curriculum

·         RATs (Reading Apprenticeship Training) overview

·         FIGs (Faculty Inquiry Groups), building collaborative relationships for student success

·         Use facilitators and peers as your resources, as you and your campus team members work together on integrative assignments, assessments, or other curricular work.

A detailed agenda will be posted soon, on the Assessment, Teaching and Learning pages.<http://www.sbctc.edu/college/e_assessment.aspx>

Hope to see you in February!
