Trust the words of your colleagues, the SDCTE Spring Conference is the place to be in March. These words are worth more than any picture.
What follows are comments taken from the 2001 conference evaluations.
| "I learned to reduce some stress." | |
| "I learned some neat writing ideas." | |
| "I learned a lot about taking time for myself and that it is 'OK' to not correct everything!!" |
The most valuable part of the conference was...
| getting the time to talk with others and feel good about what you are doing. | |
| talking with other teachers at the banquet, between sessions, about ideas, frustrations. | |
| talking with other English teachers about what we love most, teaching. |
I liked...
| the positive and productive collegiality of all here. | |
| talking with other teachers and sharing ideas. | |
| being able to talk with other English teachers about what works/doesn't work. | |
| the setup of only two sessions at a time and the closeness of our group. | |
| spending time with fellow
teachers. |
This conference will benefit me and my students by . .
