AVID DigitalXP: CTE and Post-Secondary

Early College, CTE, & Postsecondary is designed for dual enrollment, ECHS, P-TECH, CTE, and postsecondary instructors and leaders. Educators will learn and apply Writing, Inquiry, Collaboration, Organization, and Reading (WICOR®) instructional strategies to ensure students’ engagement, access to rigor, college success, and career readiness. Participants will leverage high-engagement strategies to investigate, analyze, design, and develop best-practice instruction with an emphasis on metacognition for the classroom, laboratory, and/or online environments across all disciplines. During this three-day 17-hour virtual learning experience comprised of pre-work, synchronous work, and semi-synchronous work, participants will be able to: • Apply the AVID College and Career Readiness Framework as an organizing principle to guide and develop the instructional practice and program development within your learning environments and/or educational settings. • Utilize WICOR® strategies to develop academic skills that support success in rigorous coursework. • Empower students through experiences that build and nurture skills to develop students’ agency and support social and emotional learning. • Evaluate current programs and instruction to advance college preparedness and/or career knowledge.
