Abstract:
In many classrooms reading comprehension is addressed by having students read passages and answer questions about what they have read. While this is definitely a necessary part of practice, it does not provide them with strategies to improve their ability to comprehend texts. In this session instructors will practice 10 specific reading strategies that they can use with students to help make the practices of successful readers a part of their classroom instruction. The goal is to give instructors the tools to expand their personal repertoire, but also to broaden the scope of reading instruction at their program sites.

Abstract:
The Iowa Department of Education presented at the 2019 COABE Conference on their collaboration with Iowa’s 15 community colleges to build, connect, and empower employer-led, community-based sector partnerships to combat a shortage of skilled labor through a wide variety of talent attraction, retention, and development initiatives. The discussion centered on newly developed statewide materials, strategies, and initiatives which continue to support the development and growth of collaborative sector partnerships in Iowa, including a series of educational toolkits, community of practice initiatives, and statewide career pathway development strategies for critical industries like health science, advanced manufacturing, IT, and energy. Many of these resources, strategies, and general ideas can be easily and quickly replicated in other communities across the US. Visit SectorPartnerships.EducateIowa.gov to learn more and download many of the highlighted materials and additional resouces!

Abstract:
In keeping with the theme of the 2018 COABE conference, the Adult Numeracy Network wants to remind you that when flying at these new higher altitudes of math standards and assessment, we need to put on our own “math” before assisting our students. Regardless of the level of math that you teach, having increased content knowledge will equip you to better explain concepts to students and give you more avenues to connect with their background knowledge as you listen to students explain their reasoning. This one-hour webinar will highlight one hands-on and collaborative activity to deepen our own math content knowledge in various areas and at various levels (so you will benefit regardless of the math you know or teach). Plus, since our own learning is ongoing, just like that of our students, you will also leave with specific resources and strategies for continued mathematical learning after the webinar. Session Objectives 1. Participants will deepen their understanding of one or more mathematics content area(s) of the College and Career Readiness Standards (CCRS). 2. Participants will develop their understanding of how their level of mathematics content knowledge contributes to the learning experience of their students. 3. Participants will increase their awareness of their own strengths and/or gaps in mathematics content knowledge. 4. Participants will gain specific strategies and resources for continued learning after the conference. 5. Participants will learn about the value of a low-floor and high-ceiling activity.
