Differentiation: Ways to Save Time
and
Increase Achievement for All Learners K-12

Bertie Kingore Author

This is an opportunity for educators from all levels to learn how to effectively create an educational environment for all levels of learners from remedial to gifted. Whether you need to differentiate because of Response to Intervention, you have students left unchallenged or you have students falling behind, Bertie will address how you can specifically address the needs of all your students.

NOT YOUR ORDINARY WORKSHOP OR CONFERENCE
Let’s face it, we have all attended workshops that inspire but leave us without direction . . . sort of floating in the air, motivated but unguided. We have been to conferences that take a shotgun approach to professional development where we get bits and pieces and hope something sticks. And we certainly have had plenty of research theory that has not translated into practical application.

We created the Directions Conference to provide our regional educators with specific solutions and strategies that work. Our ultimate goal: improve student achievement. Our path to achieving this is through recognized national presenters who have answers and not theory. Dr. Kingore represents the pinnacle of this belief. We guarantee that you will leave with increased knowledge and with very specific strategies that you can implement the next day to improve student performance. This day of targeted training will be fast and furious, so come prepared to get to the “nitty-gritty” from the start.
