The session will provide you with information on the key components of IET\, the benefits of this from adult career pathways programming\, and where to locate resources to begin your IET journey. \n(b) My SSLO Story – Presenters: Patsy Egan and Kristine Kelly\, ATLAS and panel\nSSLOs – that pesky but oh-so-important Single Set of Learning Objectives – emerge in programs in their own way! Join us to hear about various programs’ SSLO journeys\, and how they finally landed on SSLOs worthy of the great teaching and learning happening at their sites. Panelists include ABE colleagues from Moose Lake DOC\, Sauk Rapids (Hillside Adult Education)\, and the International Institute. Facilitated by ATLAS staff members Patsy Egan and Kristine Kelly. \n2:30-3:20 pm – CONCURRENT SESSION 2 (CHOOSE ONE):\n(a) Unpacking the IET Design Toolkit – Presenter: Heather Turngren\, Minneapolis ABE and Kristine Kelly\, ATLAS\nUnlocking the Integrated Education and Training (IET) Design Toolkit\nHeard about IET but don’t know exactly where to start? Interested in offering IET and need some tools or resources to support you with this work?

Join us to learn more about utilizing the IET Design Toolkit to further your current IET or to begin an IET in your program. \n(b) Don’t do it alone: SE Minnesota Regional Model for IETs – Presenters: Jill Rivard\, Hiawatha Valley/Red Wing ABE and Penny Jahnke\, SE ABE\nHow many of you have thought : “I can’t do IET because my program is too small\, I don’t have the time\, I can’t afford it\, I don’t know where to start\, I can’t do the SSLO’s.” We were there too. We decided we were stronger together. Please join us In this webinar we will discuss the history of regional IET\, steps to create a regional model\, challenges and successes\, as well as how to share contact hours. \n3:25-4:15 pm – SESSION 3: IETs by Region: Let’s Talk! – Presenter: Patsy Egan\, ATLAS and Heather Turngren\, Minneapolis ABE\nAs we close this first IET Institute for Minnesota Adult Education\, we’ve set aside time for regions to come together.

This is the perfect time to learn/share about regional plans\, connect with others doing similar work in your geographic area\, and identify next steps. As a full group\, we’ll end with some key announcements and reflections from ATLAS and MDE. \n

SUMMARY:Speak Up! Pronunciation Activities for Remote or In-Person Instruction
DESCRIPTION:Registration Deadline: FRI. 3/11/22 (Part 1); FRI. 3/18/22 (Part 2) \nEnglish pronunciation is a challenge for teachers and learners alike! In order for learners to be able to add the features of English pronunciation to their speaking toolbox\, they need explicit instruction so that they can hear and produce the target sounds and rhythms. \nIn these two sessions\, you will learn about techniques to teach pronunciation that will be helpful for learners from a variety of language backgrounds and ESOL levels\, and multisensory activities that can be used during in-person or remote instruction that go far beyond “listen and repeat”. The training will also discuss the importance of focusing on intelligibility as opposed to accent reduction\, and provide suggestions for incorporating the techniques and activities into existing curriculum rather than stand-alone classes. Participants do not need to attend both sessions. \nIn Part 1 (a 90-minute session on March 11 from 1:30-3:00pm)\, we will dive into ways to teach and practice the sounds of English\, including minimal pairs\, articulatory settings\, final consonant production\, and consonant clusters. \nIn Part 2 (a 90-minute session on March 18 from 1:30-3:00pm)\, we will go above and beyond the sounds to explore ways to teach and practice the rhythms of English\, including word stress\, thought groups\, and intonation. \nCome prepared to try a variety of activities with your teaching colleagues\, and leave with ideas that you can implement immediately! \nIf you require ASL interpretation\, please contact Gail Rutan

SUMMARY:Proportional Reasoning: Strategies that Make Sense
DESCRIPTION:Registration Deadline: THU. 3/3/22 \nWe have lots of ways of reasoning intuitively about ratio and proportion\, but in school we tend to see only one method: cross-multiplication. While this strategy is effective\, it doesn’t connect to the way most people reason proportionally. In this session we will explore our own intuition about how to reason proportionally and learn to generalize those ideas into a strategy that works even when the numbers get messy – and that makes sense! \nPresented by Sarah Lonberg-Lew\, Adult Numeracy Center at TERC. Sarah has worked in the field of adult numeracy for seven years\, both as a classroom teacher and providing professional development for math and numeracy teachers. She is a consultant for the SABES (System for Adult Basic Education Support) Mathematics and Adult Numeracy Curriculum & Instruction PD Center at TERC\, where she develops and facilitates trainings and workshops and assists programs with curriculum development. She is the treasurer for the Adult Numeracy Network (ANN). \nIf you require ASL interpretation\, please contact Gail Rutan
