After 10+ years of credit card sign-ups, I have taken my family of 4 on more than 50 trips using points and miles. Some have been small weekend outings; others were two weeks in Europe. This was possible on a teacher's salary, due to credit card sign-up bonuses. Flights, hotels, and rental cars can be paid for using points by leveraging good credit and paying off balances each month.
We will share our journey toward adopting a more student-centered teaching approach, followed by a shared discussion on the institutional, academic, societal, and generational barriers we have faced along the way.
Improv is a tool for both comedic purposes and building teamwork or successful student meetings. This session will cover the basics of 'yes/and' and 'bringing a brick, not a cathedral' through beginner improv games and warm-ups to get your brain flowing. These techniques foster student meeting success and interdepartmental collaboration. The session is modeled after The Skinny Improv's corporate training.
Normal brain changes throughout the lifespan can alter how we learn. One type of intelligence increases while the other decreases. This can begin as early as 30 years of age. Our non-traditional students often believe they are less competent because many times they do not learn in the same way as their younger classmates. Understanding these brain changes can help us support students of all ages by empowering them to recognize and use their strengths in their academic careers.
