Congratulations to Michelle Tindall (Michigan Modeler and Oakland University Instructor) and Bill Thornburgh (Executive Officer of AMTA) for conducting a workshop at the Association of Science Teacher Educators international conference in Greenville, South Carolina.
The one-hour workshop was titled: Design and Delivery of a Secondary Methods Module That Will Transform Pre-Service Teachers’ Thinking.
Attendees learned about AMTA, Modeling Instruction, and experienced an introduction to Modeling through activities, whiteboarding, and discussion. They also received information about the use of high-leverage practices and Talk Moves to improve their preparation of pre-service teachers.
