"The illiterate of the 21st century will not be those who
cannot read and write,
but those who cannot learn, unlearn, and relearn."

What we do
Whether working towards continuous
improvement, integrating academics, or adjusting to
changes in curriculum and testing, teachers can feel confident in their
ability to respond to new challenges. See how lesson planning can become a
practical tool for improving instruction, and how teacher created
materials blend together research-based strategies and demonstrates academic
integration.
Who we are
Preston Webster is employed by
ASU's Workforce Education and Development Office. He is contracted
by The Northeast Arizona Technological Institute of Vocational Education (N.A.T.I.V.E.)
to provide staff development to its CTE teachers across the Navajo Nation.
The school districts include Chinle, Ganado, Kayenta, Pinon, Red Mesa,
Sanders, Tuba City, and Window Rock.
Staff
Development (Instructional design for traditional and video classrooms)
In addition to on-site training,
sessions are provided from an H.323 videoconference classroom at ASU.
Over 40 NATIVE classrooms are now capable of two-way videoconferencing.
We've now concluded our 2008 eight-day summer institutes.
In addition to four and five-day institutes, 2008 was our 27th eight-day
program.
Increased student
achievement is largely a result of improved instruction. And improved
instruction is largely the result of better, clearer, more detailed,
research-based lessons AND support material.
