Join us on Tuesday, December 8, 2020 at 3 PM EDT for a discussion with NAF’s Dr. Nick Minar, Dr. Julie Poncelet, and Katera Brown about the Youth Participatory Action Research (YPAR) and the value of youth voice for education research.
2020 is coming to an end and we know that it may feel like the year was a little too long. Check out the following resources our team can offer to close out 2020 on a good note:
Finance: Engage students in Business Ethics by identifying the ethical issues and figuring out how to solve the problems that people have to deal with in the financial world.
Entrepreneurship: Use SBA’s Finding and Attracting Investors to jump start students’ research in creating business plans and find funding for their new venture.
We loved the session “Assessment in a Hybrid World” at the CTE Is Essential virtual conference the week before Thanksgiving. Check out these assessment strategies from presenter Liz Gallo, which includes her contact info if you have any questions or need advice.
