July 5, 2015 -- Happy Sunday!

Good Afternoon All,

I hope that your July 4th was everything that you wanted it to be! I have uploaded a training resource that should prove to be beneficial when teaching millennial learners who are very visual-- please check out this training material!

Product Description: This training PowerPoint consists of fifty-eight slides that focuses on visual strategies to improve comprehension. The training session begins with a discussion of the Millennial generation and what engages this generation and how many, many of these learners are very visual learners. The training then continues with word level visualization strategies, then continues into strategies for visualizing across texts, strategies for establishing background before and during reading, strategies for sequencing to meet reading challenges with complex texts, and strategies for utilizing technology to promote visualizing, reading, and composing. This training is great for a professional development session, focused faculty meeting, or a professional learning community, and is sure to give new strategies for engaging students of all ages!
