TFLTA is offering its first ever one-day summer workshop.  


The Proof Is in the Portfolio: Teacher Effectiveness and Student Growth through Proficiency-Based Learning


The stakes have never been higher in teacher evaluation than today, especially in Tennessee. This workshop will explore proficiency-based learning that addresses the NCSSFL-ACTFL Can-Do Statements and WorldReadiness Standards for Learning Languages. We will also examine the peer-juried student growth portfolios being implemented in lieu of standardized test scores. Come explore proficiency-based learning and this exciting new method for evaluating teacher effectiveness and what steps you can take to join the process. The Shelby County World Language program in Memphis, TN is a state leader in proficiency-based learning. Take advantage of this one-day workshop by three Shelby County teachers. This workshop is coordinated and presented by Paul Jennemann, department chair at Whitehaven High School and curriculum lead and lead portfolio reviewer for Shelby County schools, with the help of Daphne Warren and Susan Satar from White Station High School.

The registration postmark deadline is June 5.
