Welcome! My name is Brooke Parish, Manager of the Fox Cities Institute for Educators. As you can see we’ve made a few changes. These changes have been implemented with the intention of continuing to offer you a first class professional development experience, while expanding our offerings. This year we are excited to offer two strands: The original offerings of STEM/Literacy and an innovative Business Immersion experience. Both strands seek to promote student achievement through professional development of PreK-12 educators. Hands-on learning is emphasized to help teachers engage students in collaborative problem solving and higher order thinking. Educators will select a strand and from that stand a courses to which they will devote their week’s study. The Institute promotes the world of work and relevance to the classroom. On Wednesday morning, July 17th, participants in the STEM/Literacy strand will tour two businesses while the Business Immersion class will have a more in depth experience spending three days in three different businesses. The Fox Cities Institute for Educators is a collaborative effort of the Competitive Workforce Alliance, a division of the Fox Cities Chamber of Commerce & Industry, Inc., University of Wisconsin-Oshkosh and local school districts.

Workshop objectives include: 1.) Participants will learn about and use Google Tools throughout the course to see how these web 2.0 tools can be embedded into teaching and learning. 2.) Participants will learn how to have students collaborate through the use of Google Tools. 3.)Participants will learn how to collaborate through word processing, spreadsheet and slide show documents. 4.) Participants will learn how to use Google Forms to easily conduct surveys and share the results. 5.) Participants will develop an action plan for using Google Tools for teaching and learning. To be successful in this workshop, 5


2013 STEM/Literacy Course Descriptions participants should have the basic technology skills for navigating the Internet, creating and editing a basic word processing document and experience using email. Experienced users will be provided with alternate learning resources to provide additional learning opportunities at an advanced level. Additional support will be provided for participants new to web 2.0 tools so that everyone is successful in the class. All participants will be required to have a Google Account. While the Wisconsin Model Academic Standards for Information and Technology Literacy (ITLS) are explicitly aligned with these tools, additional standards will also be impacted based on how the teacher integrates these tools into student learning activities.

Beyond Behavior Management: Empowering Teachers to Connect with All Students Grade Levels: Pre K-8 Subject: Classroom management; mental health Instructor: Julie Martzke, Psychologist/Adjunct Professor, Hamline University, Minneapolis, MN

hyperactivity and social disorders, and apply it to your daily classroom practice. Resources are limited and the best way to increase the success of students who are struggling is to empower the teachers who spend the most time with them. We will approach your greatest classroom management issues from a new perspective. The majority of challenging behaviors come from a skill deficit or an unmet need. This class will help you identify those needs in a proactive way so you will be more able to connect with the student and identify strategies that are more likely to be successful. Course participants will: • Learn how to identify student needs to promote prevention of behaviors • Consider the impact of cultural differences in relation to classroom behaviors • Be introduced to strategies related to common issues seen in their classrooms. This will be tailored toward the needs of participants and may include, but not be limited to anxiety disorders, depression, social disorders, attention and activity disorders, fetal alcohol syndrome, and the impact of stress and poverty on students and families. • Learn practical strategies focusing on motivation, socialization, attention, organization and movement in K-8 classrooms have an opportunity to brainstorm specific plans for specific students. Wisconsin Teaching Standards Addressed: 2, 3, 5, 7

Over the years when I’ve taught classes about students with special needs, the resounding reaction from regular education teachers has been, “But these are great strategies for ALL students.” How do we take what we know from the world of special education and help us connect with kids who may not be identified with a disorder or disability but still have some of the same needs? This course will pull information from what we know about how anxiety, depression, attention difficulties, 7


2013 Business Immersion Course Description Business Immersion: Grade Levels: K-12 Subject: Bringing relevance and career preparation to the classroom NOTE: this is only offered as a two or three credit course Here is your chance to explore the world of work and enhance the linkages between academic learning and career preparation.
