These are a few collections of interest to me that I think would make for a great workshop or breakout session. Topics can be addressed in their entirety or subtopics from any of these collections could be structured as individual presentations. If you have any questions or are interested in contracting with TIE, please contact me for details.

Not a Data Dump: This collection features ideas and strategies for focusing on higher order thinking skills, as well as information on Bloom's taxonomy and Marzano's strategies.

UDLEA: This collection features Universal Design for Learning techniques. I added the EA (Engages All) to make it a homonym of Udiliyah, where a friend of mine used to live.

It's focus is on adopting a 21st century teaching mindset, and it incorporates a variety of topics, from effective feedback to web 2.0 tools.

Online Tools for Language Arts: This workshop features ideas and resources for integrating technology into language arts instruction from grades 4-12--in other words, reading and writing to learn more than learning to read and write.
