NEW WORKSHOP SERIES
DR. BJ STONE

Research-Based Instructional Strategies for Educators to Increase Student Achievement – Part I
Focus: Setting Objectives and Providing Feedback, Reinforcing Effort and Providing Recognition
This session is the first of a five-part series. Participants do not have to attend all sessions. Research shows that an individual teacher can have a powerful effect on his/her students even if the school doesn't. Dr. Stone will share the research related to what those highly effective teachers do, as presented in the McREL publication Classroom Instruction that Works, 2nd Edition.
