CULLOWHEE—Beginning Teachers have an opportunity in August to join the North Carolina Center for the Advancement of Teaching, a recognized national leader for professional development programming for teachers.
Open to teachers in their first, second or third year of teaching, “Success From the Start: How To Survive And Thrive Your First Three Years in the Classroom” supports motivated beginning teachers by strengthening their knowledge base and classroom expertise. Through experiential learning, teachers will explore pedagogical concerns including differentiated instruction, brain-compatible teaching, assessment, the effect of poverty on achievement and behavior and classroom management. Come prepared to build professional competence and confidence, improve student achievement and reinforce your commitment to this critically important profession.
“I think ‘Success From the Start: How To Survive And Thrive Your First Three Years in the Classroom’ should be a mandatory program for all new teachers,” said participant Khadine Whitmore, a teacher in Durham Public Schools.
