This five day workshop is your guide to teaching the NEW High School Economics Course required for graduation beginning with the Freshman class of 2010-2011! Economics Arkansas has developed a training strategy to insure Arkansas teachers are well prepared and excited to teach the course. These workshops will be very interactive and will have those attending fully engaged from 8:30 – 4:30 each day! This content driven workshop will prepare teachers to present economics standards that will engage high school students through active participation. Pedagogy and strategies for teaching the NEW High School Economics course will be demonstrated. A notebook correlated to all of the Arkansas Economics standards (Fundamentals, Microeconomics, Macroeconomics and Personal Finance) and cross-referenced to the national economics standards, which includes all the lessons and handouts necessary for teachers to replicate what they see in the course, will be distributed at the training. Participants also receive Virtual Economics®, a CD-ROM containing over 1200 reproducible lessons in economics and personal finance. The week-long workshop will be divided into sessions to simulate an 18 week high school course. The good news for school districts is they will not need to purchase a textbook - a teacher can literally teach to all the standards without any outside resources other than the notebook if they choose! If you already have a textbook, this notebook will be an outstanding supplemental resource too! • Open to teachers who are currently licensed in secondary social studies or business education. • Priority registration will be given to those teaching economics in the academic year 2010-2011. Please indicate this on your registration. • Thirty-two hours staff development credit letter provided. • Teaching resources and materials provided. Maximum: 30 participants LUNCH AND REFRESHMENTS WILL BE SERVED. PARTICIPANTS MAY ATTEND ONE MULTI-DAY WORKSHOP EACH SUMMER.
