Workshops and Teaching Institutes

The Choices Program offers a variety of professional development programs for secondary school teachers, including introductory workshops, half and full-day in-service programs, teaching seminars, and summer teaching institutes. Choices also collaborates with other organizations in the field to offer extended professional development opportunities to area teachers.

All programs are interactive, engaging participants in first-hand experience with the international content and student-centered approach of the Choices Program, and all provide opportunity for reflection on applications for the classroom.

Teachers Reflect

Teachers Reflect provides an opportunity for teachers working with the resources, approach, and programs of the Choices Program to share their experience with others. We hope that this space will prove to be a useful area for shared learning and reflection.

Alignment with National and State Standards

The teaching resources and pedagogical approach of the Choices Program aligns with national standards for social studies, U.S. history, world history, civics and government, economics, geography, and environmental science. They also address a range of state standards.
