Description:
REL Midwest is providing a series of train-the-trainer workshops to build the content knowledge, facilitation skills, and confidence of a cadre of trainers who present KIDS data use workshop materials to kindergarten teachers. The workshop introduces participants to best facilitation practices; presents an overview of the promising practices for examining and interpreting KIDS data; familiarizes participants with the KIDS workshop slide deck, annotated agenda, and facilitation guide; and provides an opportunity for participants to practice their facilitation of the KIDS data use workshop.
