Teaching Self-Regulation: Kansans Can Competency Framework (Virtual Series)

In collaboration with the Kansas State Department of Education and Southwest Plains Educational Service Center, this three session virtual training series is designed for upper elementary through high school teachers to better understand instructional activities to teach self-regulation, either in core content or other applicable areas such as counseling, special education, or CTE. Through this highly interactive virtual training series, educators will be provided the knowledge and resources to provide self-regulation instructional activities and practices for any content area. In each session, instructional activities will be reviewed and then discussed with colleagues, with facilitation from a Recognized Trainer. You will leave each session with a plan for instruction.

This training will support educators to embed self-regulation instruction and practice.  Student outcomes include increased ability to plan, complete tasks on time, and persistence in the face of setbacks.

Dates for the three sessions are listed below, with optional coaching in between Sessions 1 and 2. All three sessions must be attended.

• Session 1: November 10^th 2:00-5:00pm
