REGISTRATION HERE

DESCRIPTION:
This day is a unique opportunity to inform your teaching practice through peer observation of high school tech/design and management courses, following the Career Academy Model where students learn real-world skills in the classroom and transfer them to the stage. To accomplish this,

  1. We will observe Regional Arts Teacher-Leader Susan Nelson teach a Theater Business Management class and a Stagecraft class, paying attention to areas such as student engagement, instructional strategies, formative assessment, and/or teaching resources. Think about “Ah-ha!” and “I wonder…”
  2.  Tour Hibbing High School’s historic auditorium space and discuss the opportunities and challenges it presents in terms of tech/design and theater production in general.
  3. Following the class observations and tour, we will move to The Sportsmen’s Café, where Stephanie Lein Walseth will facilitate a discussion of our observations.

Take away new ideas and strategies for shaping and teaching your high school theater tech/design and management classes. This observation day may be especially valuable to teachers thinking about adding tech/design courses to their high school theater curriculum, and/or those interested in the Career Academy Model.
