Awaken the Learner Within at the 65th Annual Meeting
“I am not a teacher, but an awakener.” This quote from Robert Frost is a fitting definition for much of the work in educator preparation–and the first step in grooming the teachers of tomorrow is helping to waken them to the needs of the children they will instruct. It’s no wonder AACTE members have identified Meeting Emerging PK-12 Needs as a hot topic they are eager to explore in Orlando, Florida, when the 65th Annual Meeting convenes, February 28-March 2. Take a look at just a few of the sessions planned in this subject area.
