Strong preparation prior to a learning event or experience can greatly enhance the performance of the learner. Educators see evidence of this everyday in their classrooms. This also holds true for participants at a teaching institute, where the time spent in preparation leads to increased readiness and performance, providing a solid foundation to build on at the beginning of the institute.

Preparation for a teaching institute consists of two readings and three exercises. Note that the expectation is that all participants have completed the readings and exercises prior to the start of the institute.

You will also be expected to complete readings and other assignments at home during the course of the teaching institute.

Readings

The first reading provides information about the teaching institute itself (the objectives, theme areas, agenda, and general overview).   The second reading provides information about the philosophy of Process Education which is a topic addressed early in the institute.
