SUMMARY:Antiracist Praxis Study Circle
DESCRIPTION:Application Deadline: FRI. 2/13/26 \nMany of us have heard the terms antiracist and DEI (diversity\, equity and inclusion)\, but how do we actually implement these large frameworks into our adult English classrooms? This study circle goes beyond defining antiracism and explores how the research around Translanguaging by Ofelia García (2017) and Culturally Responsive Teaching by Zaretta Hammond (2015) provides us with tools to change the way we approach teaching. Participation in this activity is by application only. \n\nLearn more about the study circle >>\nAPPLY NOW >>\n\nQuestions? Contact Patsy Egan\, pegan02@hamline.edu \n\nStudy Circle Dates: \nWed. 2/25/26 – 2-4 pm (CST) \nWed. 3/4/26 – 2-4 pm (CST) \nWed. 3/11/26 – 2-4 pm (CST) \nWed. 3/18/26 – 2-4 pm (CST) \nWed. 4/8/26 – 2-4 pm (CST) \nIf you require ASL interpretation\, contact Gail Rutan at grutan01@hamline.edu

SUMMARY:Language & Literacy Institute 2026 - VIRTUAL EVENT - Day 2
DESCRIPTION:REGISTRATION DEADLINE: FRI. 1/30/26  \nIMPORTANT NOTE: You must register for EACH day you plan to attend! \nFLYER (Final Agenda)\nPROGRAM SCHEDULE (Complete Session Descriptions) COMING SOON!\nIf you require ASL Interpretation\, contact Gail Rutan at grutan01@hamline.edu\n\nGENERAL SESSIONS: \nGeneral Session: From Academic Language to the Language of Access: History\, Harm\, and New Possibilities in Adult Education\, presented by Michelle Benegas\, Hamline University \nSession Description: Adult educators across Minnesota work with learners navigating many linguistic worlds — high school equivalency\, college preparation\, workplace expectations\, digital communication\, and more. Yet the term “academic language\,” once proposed as a neutral support for learners\, has increasingly functioned as a racialized hierarchy that privileges certain ways of speaking and writing. \nThis session slows down the history: how scholars such as Cummins and Zwiers framed academic language\, why their models resonated at the time\, and how more recent work — including that of Nelson Flores — challenges us to rethink what we are actually asking learners to do. Using storytelling\, brief video clips\, and interactive breakout reflections\, we will explore the shift toward the language of access: a practical\, justice-oriented approach that asks not “How do we correct learners?” but “How do we equip them with multiple linguistic resources to move through unequal systems?” \nParticipants will leave with concrete strategies\, fresh perspectives\, and a deeper understanding of how language can either reinforce barriers or open doors in adult education settings. \n

SUMMARY:Language & Literacy Institute 2026 - VIRTUAL EVENT - Day 1
DESCRIPTION:REGISTRATION DEADLINE: THU. 1/29/26  \nIMPORTANT NOTE: You must register for EACH day you plan to attend! \nFLYER (Final Agenda)\nPROGRAM SCHEDULE (Complete Session Descriptions) COMING SOON!\nIf you require ASL Interpretation\, contact Gail Rutan at grutan01@hamline.edu\n\nGENERAL SESSIONS: \nGeneral Session A: Designing for Difference: Scaffolds that Support Adult Learners’ Voice and Choice\, presented by Jayme Adelson-Goldstein  \nSession Description: Adult learners bring a spectrum of goals\, strengths\, and needs into every learning space. With this variability in mind\, we can intentionally design instruction that amplifies learner agency and provides multiple pathways to engage with lesson content. By embedding scaffolds and differentiation strategies into instructional routines\, it’s possible to balance structure with learner autonomy and thrive in the process. In this webshop\, we’ll reflect on the role scaffolds and differentiation play in deepening learners’ understanding of core content and collaborate to use instructional routines (including choice boards) that increase learners’ connection to that content and to each other. \n \nJayme Adelson-Goldstein has over 40 years of experience as an instructional designer\, teacher educator\, and instructional coach. She focuses on refining instructional practices in ways that respect and differentiate for the needs of multilingual learners and the teachers\, tutors\, and instructional leaders who serve them. In her work as Lighthearted Learning\, she provides in-person and virtual professional learning opportunities that emphasize instructional approaches which contextualize\, scaffold\, and customize adult learning while fostering learner agency. She has served as a subject matter expert on federal projects including Digital Resilience in the American Workforce (DRAW)\, Teaching the Skills That Matter (TSTM)\, and LINCS ESL Pro\, and is the recipient of the 2025 Ideal Consortium Impact Award for Innovating Digital Education for Adult Learners. Her publications include The Oxford Picture Dictionary\, Step Forward\, and numerous open educational resources for adult instructors. \nGeneral Session B: The Power of Talk: Building Literacy and Career Readiness Through Oral Language \nIn this workshop\, we explore how harnessing and strengthening oral language can act as a springboard for literacy development and career readiness. Using the Teaching & Learning Cycle\, which scaffolds academic and professional writing through deep and critical thinking tasks\, academic discussions\, interactive reading\, and language development\, instructors can connect seamlessly to the CCR Shifts in Complexity/Evidence/Knowledge. Learn how structured academic conversations serve to build and deepen content knowledge; see how using mentor texts can move adult learners to constructing complex texts of their own while supporting ideas with evidence. This workshop will benefit teachers both of English learners as well as learners whose primary language is English. \nBetsy Parrish is Professor in the TESOL Program at Hamline University. She has worked for over 35 years as an English language teacher\, teacher educator\, and consultant in the US\, Bangladesh\, Costa Rica\, France\, India\, Russia\, and Vietnam. She is a frequent presenter at state\, national\, and international conferences on adult education issues\, including academic and career readiness\, innovative PD models\, and learner-centered teaching practices. As co-founder of ATLAS\, Betsy participated in the development of the Minnesota Transitions Integration Framework (TIF). She has been a subject matter expert on several OCTAE-funded projects\, including ESL Pro\, Teaching the Skills that Matter in Adult Education (TSTM) Civics Toolkit\, the LINCS course on Principles and Practices for Meeting Adult EL needs\, and trainings for the English Language Proficiency Standards for Adult Education. Betsy is the author of Teaching Adult ESL:English Language Learners: A Practical Introduction (Cambridge 2019).

SUMMARY:Holding Space: Healing-Centered Routines and Practices for Classroom Instruction
DESCRIPTION:Registration Deadline: MON. 12/8/25 \nFor many learners and teachers\, stress and trauma can seem like insurmountable barriers to developing academic skills.

SUMMARY:Math Institute 2025 (Virtual Conference)
DESCRIPTION:REGISTRATION DEADLINE: FRI. 11/7/25 \nKeynote Talk: Math is Figuroutable!\nKeynote Speaker: Pamela Weber Harris\nPamela Weber Harris is changing the way we view and teach mathematics. She is the author of several books\, including Numeracy Problems Strings K-5\, Developing Mathematical Reasoning\, and Building Powerful Numeracy. As a mom\, a former high school math teacher\, university lecturer\, and an author\, she believes everyone can do more math when it is based in reasoning than math as memorizing and mimicking.

SUMMARY:Healing-Centered Organizations: Stress and Trauma’s Impact on Adult Education Programs and Teams
DESCRIPTION:Registration Deadline: THU. 11/6/25 \nHow does trauma show up in our organizations? Trauma is not only an individual’s experience or responsibility\, but an organizational pattern that can be perpetuated in schools and programs. This webinar presented by frequent ATLAS speaker Lucille Amis Rosario explores the types and signs of organizational trauma\, including patterns like parallel process and re-enactment that can undermine team cohesion and the wellbeing of both students and staff. Learn how communication dynamics may reflect deeper stress\, and discover practical ways to interrupt harmful cycles through a healing-centered approach. Lucille will also introduce a Sequence of Engagement framework to guide healthier interactions and support programs in becoming places of healing. \nIf you require ASL interpretation contact Gail Rutan at grutan01@hamline.edu
