SUMMARY:NTEN's New Nonprofit Data Report and Connections with the State of
the Nonprofit Cloud Report- Online
DESCRIPTION:This year NTEN and Idealware conducted a survey of nonprofits a
bout their relationships with data\, and what we found was a large dichoto
my—either they were doing a lot with their metrics or not much at all. Too
often barriers keep nonprofits from collecting and integrating important
data into their daily work. The barriers are familiar to those who work in
and with nonprofits: not enough staff or time to collect or analyze this
data\; not knowing what data to collect or how to make use of it\; competi
ng demands or conflicting reporting requirements\; money or technology lim
itations. We also found that funders play an important role in both the ch
allenges and opportunities for nonprofits regarding data for decision-maki
ng. More information: http://www.nten.org/events/webinar/2012/11/29/nonpro

Ev.aspx?PIID=ED58DB818249 Presented by Robyn R. Jackson\, Ph.D.\, Founde
r and President of Mindsteps When we see students struggling\, our first r
esponse is often to try to rescue them from that struggle. But\, not all s
truggle is bad. In fact\, if you help students struggle the right way\, yo
u can not only make them become better learners\, you can dramatically inc
rease their motivation and engagement and empower them to take full owners
hip over their own learning. The secret? You have to know the difference b
etween productive struggle and destructive struggle. In this interactive w
ebinar\, learn how to tell the difference between struggle that is product
ive and fosters learning\, and struggle that is destructive and leads to f
rustration and failure. Then find out specific ways you can foster product
ive struggle\, and the exact approach you need to get students out of dest
ructive struggle and break the cycle of failure.

tely become the 'work' of our classrooms. But\, let's face it\, close read

of the learner. This transition is made possible through innovative uses
of technology for (1) diagnostic\, formative\, and summative assessments\;
(2) managing learning\; (3) engaging students in learning\; and (4) provi
ding anywhere\, anytime learning. Such transitions require districts to re
think and more effectively leverage the use of instructional time. The Pro

eaders with demonstrated records of success\, will provide insight into ho
w they approach the use of time for digital learning from the perspectives
of a superintendent\, chief technology officer\, principal\, and educator
. They will also discuss key areas of this gear\, including flexible learn

DESCRIPTION:Tuesday\, February 11th\, 2:00pm - 3:30pm EST AND Tuesday\, Mar
ch 4th\, 2:00pm - 3:30pm EST The National College Transition Network at Wo
rld Education\, Inc invites you to a free 2-part webinar to learn about th
e findings from the ATLAS study\, implemented by UMass Amherst and World E
ducation with funding from the Nellie Mae Education Foundation. ATLAS foll
owed over 200 ABE-to-College transition course participants for five years
to uncover the factors that influenced them in enrolling\, persisting\, a
nd succeeding in college. The question driving this research was: What are
the educational outcomes for adults participating in a transition- to-col
lege course\, and what are the factors individual\, program\, institutiona
l that influence these outcomes? In this study\, 220 adults were interview
ed who participated in one of 11 ABE-to-College transition programs in fal
l 2007 or spring 2008. We followed them for five years\, interviewing them
each year\, asking them about their college status and about their indivi
dual\, family\, and work lives\, to uncover the supports and barriers to e
nrolling\, persisting and succeeding in college. Using both quantitative a
nd qualitative data analysis\, this session will present the key findings
about transition course program features that support successful college t
rajectories and findings about factors that help or hinder adult students
to go to college. After learning these findings\, participants will work w
ith others to discuss the implications of these findings for their own wor
k in college transitions. Presenter: Cristine Smith is an Associate Profes
sor at the University of Massachusetts Amherst. Previously\, she served as

SUMMARY:What Would Immigration Reform Mean for Miami?
DESCRIPTION:Immigration reform promises to transform life in South Florida.
For years Floridians hired\, educated\, and interacted on a daily basis w
ith people whose legal status is uncertain. Bringing them into the system
could change Miami’s economy\, schools\, and politics as more people becom
e able to start businesses\, pursue higher education\, and participate ful
ly in civic life without fear of legal repercussions. New legislation coul
d also help local businesses recruit and hire the workers they need. But i
mmigration reform also poses potential challenges—from higher labor costs
to increased demand for already strained public services. Can Miami prepar
e to become a post-immigration-reform city—and does the 1986 amnesty hold
any lessons for South Florida’s future? U.S. Congressman Mario Diaz-Balart
\, TIME Magazine Senior National Correspondent Michael Grunwald\, Haitian
Women of Miami Executive Director Marleine Bastien\, and Miami-Dade County
Chief Economist Robert Cruz visit Zócalo to discuss what immigration refo
rm would mean for us all. More information: http://www.zocalopublicsquare

SUMMARY:Teaching about Clean Energy for Work\, Home\, and Community
DESCRIPTION:The clean energy sector represents a potential opportunity for
ABE students to enter training and career pathways in a variety of occupat
ions – engineering/technical\, administrative\, customer service\, manufac
turing\, skilled trades\, installation and maintenance - that can address
the growing workforce needs of the sector. Equally important is to help st
udents become informed consumers\, citizens\, and advocates for products\,
services\, and policies that develop strategies for increasing efficiency
and reducing energy costs as well as helping to grow and sustain the clea
n energy economy. Teaching about the challenge of our current energy use a
nd global warming lends itself beautifully to curriculum integration\; you
can teach math\, science\, GED skills\, and vocabulary. And students are
keenly interested. – Clean Energy Ambassador World Education\, in partners
hip with Finding Earth Works\, designed the ABE Clean Energy Ambassadors p
roject to address the misalignment between the potential opportunity offer
ed by the emerging clean energy sector and the lack of information and exp
osure afforded to the ABE field. The ABE Clean Energy Ambassadors project
was designed to provide clean energy industry background information\, key
concepts and real-world industry exposure to participating program staff
and students. The project enhanced staff capacity to teach students about
clean energy and provide informed guidance on local clean energy career an
d training opportunities. Learn about the project activities\, 100-plus c
urriculum resources collected\, and participating staff and student outcom
es. Identify resources and tools you can use to investigate the potential
clean energy career and training opportunities in clean energy. Discuss th
e potential for implementing a similar clean energy project in your region
or program. This webinar would be particularly useful to you if: You are
an adult education program administrator\, teacher\, or a counselor/adviso
r looking for ways to enhance both the STEM and career-readiness aspects o
f your curricula and programming You are staff at a workforce development
organization charged with building industry awareness\, employer engagemen
t and connections to training and education providers for low-skilled adul
ts. You are state adult education administrators or professional developer
s interested in models of professional development that engage employers a
nd other industry and training stakeholders. More information: http://co

SUMMARY:Uncovering Brain Injury in the Adult Classroom
DESCRIPTION:Students with brain injuries are not always apparent - you can'
t tell because brain injuries are often subtle and often don't leave visib

the challenges these injuries can create in the classroom for participant
s and instructors. To address these challenges\, helpful instructional str
ategies and resources will be presented and discussed. What brain injuries
can lead to learning and behavioral challenges? How can I find out if a p
articipant has a brain/head injury? What can I do as an instructor to supp
ort the participant with a head injury and help them learn how to manage t
heir learning and/or employment challenges? What resources can I use to he
lp me help my students with head injuries? Presenter: Lori Leininger is cu

SUMMARY:Structured Word Inquiry: Helping Struggling Students Make Sense of
How the Written Word Works - Webinar
DESCRIPTION:Date/Time:February 19th\, 2013 - 3:00pm PST Fee:$75.00 Descript
ion: Recent reviews indicate that when morphology is targeted in intervent
ion studies\, the general population of students benefits\, and that these
effects are particularly strong for less able and younger students (Bower
s\, Kirby & Deacon\, 2010\; Carlisle\, 2010\, Goodwin & Ahn\, 2010\; Reed\
, 2008). This two hour webinar provides participants with an introduction
to the fundamental conventions of oral and written morphology. Participan
ts will learn about this content by using practical instructional tools an
d the structured word inquiry approach (Bowers & Kirby\, 2010) that can be
used to work with struggling students of any age to support reading\, voc
abulary and spelling knowledge. See examples of this instruction in action
at this YouTube page by clicking here\, or the WordWorks Literacy Center
website. You will have the opportunity to ask questions and download the P
ower Point presentation. Peter Bowers is a teacher\, researcher author and
founder of WordWorks Literacy Centre (www.wordworkskingston.com). An elem
entary teacher for 10 years\, Peter recently earned his PhD from the Facul
ty of Education at Queen’s University. His research of the effects of morp
hological instruction has been published in journals such as Review of Edu
cational Research\, and Reading and Writing. Peter has conducted workshops
on Structured Word Inquiry in Europe\, Africa\, Asia\, Australia\, the Mi
ddle East and North America. He is a passionate educator who\, along with
colleagues at Real Spelling\, LEX and Real Spellers\, is part of a develop
ing a community of learners who delight in making sense and meaning of Eng
lish spelling through scientific inquiry. Peter’s book\, Teaching How the
Written Word Works expands on the lessons of his vocabulary intervention w
hich used a structured word inquiry approach with morphological word sums
and matrices which found generative vocabulary learning for the experiment
al group compared to controls. For an introduction to this work\, explore
the WordWorks website and YouTube page for examples of this instruction in
action. See this short article\, co-authored with Gina Cooke (LEX) in Per
spectives on Language and Literacy (the journal of the International Dysle
xia Association) that places this instruction in the context of current re
search and the Common Core States Standards. This article shows how the ba
sic tools of this instruction\, the matrix and the word sum bring the long
standing linguistic understanding of English spelling to classrooms from
kindergarten and up. More info: http://dyslexiatraininginstitute.org/dysle

SUMMARY:[ProLiteracy Webinar] Perspectives on Persistence: A Review of the
Research
DESCRIPTION:This webinar will address the ongoing issue of learner persiste
nce in Adult Basic Education (ABE). How practitioners define and view pers
istence will inform the actions they take. We will consider different ways
to define persistence (for example\, whether measured by number of hours
attended\, attainment of a goal\, or over the life of the learner) and dis
cuss two prominent perspectives on persistence issues: a control/prevent p
erspective and an acknowledge/accommodate perspective. While there is no s
imple formula for improving learner persistence\, in this webinar we will
discuss strategies reported in the research literature\, then participants
will discuss how they might develop an approach to addressing learner per
sistence. A Review of the Research is a series of webinars sponsored by Pr
oLiteracy that examines important issues in adult education. Each webinar
begins with a review of the research\, then provides an opportunity for pa
rticipants to explore how they can implement research recommendations in t
heir programs. Register Here

York that gives scholarships to diverse groups of students with strong le
adership skills and sends them to selective colleges in 'posses' of 10. Th
e idea is that the scholars can bond before they ever go to campus and the
n can provide support to one another throughout their college years. The a

57 percent\, about 90 percent of Posse scholars finish in four years. Joi

SUMMARY:Friends with Benefits: How Nonprofits Should Engage Millennial Volu
nteers (Webinar)
DESCRIPTION:Millennials (generally accepted as those born from around 1980
to around 2000\,) make up the largest generation in U.S. history. They are
also one of the most energized and active when it comes to volunteering.
At their youngest\, they are just now entering high school\, many with com
munity service requirements. At their oldest\, they are working their way
up the corporate ranks\, participating in (and often demanding) employee v
olunteer programs. This makes them an important group for nonprofits that
rely on the dedication of volunteers. In order to effectively engage Mille
nnial volunteers\, however\, we need to know the answer to one very import
ant question: WHY do they volunteer? In early 2012\, DoSomething.org\, one
of the largest organizations in the U.S. for young people and social chan
ge\, conducted a national survey on young people and volunteering. One fac
t they uncovered was that 93% of teens say they want to volunteer\, but a
far smaller percentage of young people actually do volunteer. During this
webinar\, members of the DoSomething.org data team will guide you through
the findings of the study. You will learn why some teens and college stude
nts volunteer and why some don’t. You will also gain insight into how to c
lose that gap and engage Millennials with your organization’s work. What Y
ou'll Learn: What factors motivate Millennials to get involved in volunte
ering What causes Millennials care most about Tips for how to engage young
volunteers Who Should Attend: Nonprofit volunteer managers Nonprofit pro
gram managers Anyone who works with youth volunteers at a nonprofit organi

SUMMARY:Managed Enrollment: Considerations for Planning\, Curriculum\, and
Program Impact
DESCRIPTION:Moving from an open enrollment system to managed enrollment in
Adult Basic Education and Literacy programs is a daunting proposition. Yet
\, this shift in service delivery is critical as we look to implement core
standards and prepare students for future careers. Managed enrolled uses
an improved framework that can build persistence and expedite learning gai
ns. Students\, in need of structured learning and more in-class time\, are
willing to sign-up for a specific period of time rather than an open-ende
d obligation. Across the United States managed enrolled is taking lots of
different forms. As many mid and smaller size programs begin the change pr
ocess there are so many issues that need to be addressed. This is the firs
t webinar to begin the conversation at a national level and share ideas of
both successes and challenges. If you are in the process of shifting to m
anaged enrollment or if you need some ideas to jumpstart your process\, th
is webinar is for you! Kim Olsen was an early implementer of management en
rollment with over 7 years of managed enrollment experience. In this sessi
on she will provide an overview of how one program transitioned from an op
en-enrollment learning lab to managed-enrollment classes\, including: Usin
g program data to make informed decisions about policies and structures. E
ducating partners about the benefits of managed enrollment. Developing a c
urriculum that maximizes the impact of managed classes. Assessing the shor
t-and long-term impact of managed enrollment on program performance. Prese

SUMMARY:Free Webinar: Writing Strategy Instructions For ESOL Learners
DESCRIPTION:We know our learners have compelling\, personal narratives\, an
d many have the speaking skills required to share their stories or make an
d support a claim. But do they have the strategies that allow them to put
their stories and ideas in writing? How can we best coach our learners so
that they can take on the challenge of writing clearly and coherently? In
this Webinar\, we’ll explore the direct instruction in writing strategies
that ESOL learners need to take their written work through the planning\,
drafting\, and finalizing stages. Tools such as graphic organizers\, check
lists\, models\, frames\, and rubrics do double duty: first as the basis f
or our direct\, explicit\, and systematic writing instruction and then as
the supports for learners when they write independently. We’ll also look a
t the brain science on feedback and provide tips to make the feedback proc
ess more successful. By the end of this Webinar\, you will be able to: eng
age learners in pre-writing activities to organize and plan their written
work\; use models\, frames\, and checklists to provide direct instruction
in writing strategies\; and provide learners with templates for peer and s
elf-editing. Presenter: Jayme Adelson Goldstein\, ESOL Professional Develo

SUMMARY:Are Visual Processing Difficulties Keeping Your Adult Students from
Succeeding? (Webinar)
DESCRIPTION:February 21\, 2013 - 12:30-2:00pm PT\, 1:30-3:00pm MT\, 2:30-4:
00pm CT\, 3:30-5:00pm ET REGISTER Description: Did you know that more than
half of the adults who struggle with reading suffer from difficulties ass
ociated with Irlen Syndrome? The syndrome is characterized by problems wit
h light sensitivity\, glare\, contrast\, print clarity\, print stability\,
attention and concentration\, resulting from the brain’s inability to cor
rectly process visual information. The ability to identify the syndrome is

SUMMARY:Unlocking the Learning to Build Resilient Learners in Correctional
Facilities (Washington County)
DESCRIPTION:Reading and writing skills in the ABE and ESOL classrooms don’t
need to be kept separate. A strong correlation exists between the two. Ac
cording to the research\, 'about 70% of the variation in reading and writi
ng abilities are shared' (Timothy Shanahan 2017). Close reading has defini
tely become the 'work' of our classrooms. But\, let's face it\, close read
ing isn't often a skill that comes naturally. When our students get a new
reading assignment\, their first instinct is often to race to the finish l
ine rather than engage deeply with a text. They often see that what they r
ead does not have an impact on what they write. However\, as students beco
me skilled readers\, they notice more than just the content of the text. T
hey observe sentence and paragraph structures\, grammar\, variations in pa
cing\, and recurring themes. When combined\, there are positive effects bo
th in terms of students learning to read and in terms of students learning
to write. Join the IPDAE trainers as they delve into deconstructing texts
through close reading strategies. This session will provide you with eng
aging ways to teach close reading skills in your ABE/ESOL classroom\, as w
ell as how to combine the writing process with each close reading lesson.
Plus\, this workshop will integrate ideas and resources based on the surve
y questionnaire that you completed. Learn how to access the various IPDAE
matrix resources aligned to the TABE 11/12 and the College and Career Read
iness Standards. Access sites that will assist you in aligning classroom a
ctivities to the standards. Participate in activities using manipulatives
and multiple resources that you can use in your classroom immediately. All
