SAVE THE DATE FOR TTT SPRING INSTITUTE

Save the Date for CTN’s TTT Spring Institute in McAllen on March 26-27 at the Hotel Casa de Palmas. The seminar begins Thursday at 8 am, and it ends at 11 am on Friday.

The Transformative Teaching Track is an experiential and intensive training in classroom strategies, co-curricular design and team building with an emphasis on culturally responsive practice. The training is tailored to meet the needs of faculty who wish to play a leadership role in response to House Bill 2223 and the Texas Higher Education Coordinating Board’s 60x30 campaign. Content-area or developmental instructors who want to be part of a statewide community of practice focusing on personal and professional development in order to meet the needs of a diverse student population should attend. Attendees are eligible for graduate credit from UT. Go to this site for more information: extension.utexas.edu/catch-the-next.
