In our written evaluations completed at the conclusion of the program, of the over 200 teachers that have run AD101, over 93% have said they would like to continue working with us the next term.   We have found that many of our teachers feel they have grown as educators by using the Socaratic method, intergrating technology into their curiculum and by becoming "closer" and more "sensitive to their students needs".

Our open-ended design allows adminstrators to use American Dream 101 to provider their teachers with:

Professional Development: With the American Dream 101 program as a backdrop, we train instructors to create flexible learning plans with measurable outcomes that combine innovative original curriculum with interactive Internet technology.  They also learn skills that can be applied to all their classes, such as: 

  • Classroom Management
  • Introduction to the Internet
  • Socratic Method
  • Integration of technology with curriculum

Student Attitudinal Tracking:  Every student that participates completes a pre and post-attitudinal survey to measure the impact of the program.  This information can be included in Annual Education Planning for schools and districts.  We also provide Administrators with: 

  • Weekly teacher reports.
  • Daily monitoring of student progress.
  • Final student and teacher evaluation summaries.
  • Comparative outcome data from other school sites.

 

Advisory Curriculum: Most teachers are not “trained” to be guidance counselors which can make becoming an Advisor difficult.  We give teachers the tools to explore personal subjects with their students and then train them on how to maximum interaction and ultimately, results!

 

Learning Standards Satisfied:  The American Dream 101 program meets National learning standards in reading, writing & cognitive learning.

Teacher training includes:

Every Instructor that attends Training will get:

  • Three hours of training to run the program which includes classroom management, technology integration and the Socratic method.
  • A 70-page AD101 procedures manual with a comprehensive “life skills” curriculum of 23 lessons.
  • Instructor access codes with online version of procedures manual and curriculum.
  • Class access codes (for up to 60 students).
  • 60 workbooks titled, “Experience your Possibilities”.

LIFE IS A JOURNEY, NOT A DESTINATION.
SO ENJOY THE RIDE!
