Application Sessions

Participants

Throughout the week, there will be daily sessions set aside for you to meet with a peer facilitator (a returning Teacher Institute graduate) to debrief the day’s content and strategies and help you brainstorm ways to design curricula for your classroom based on the day’s experiences. The peer will reinforce teaching strategies presented during the day and offer lessons and strategies they have successfully used with their students in the classroom.

Peer facilitators are graduates of the Teacher Institute who have returned to help provide guidance and support. We make every effort to choose someone who will best fit with your group; e.g., the peer facilitators for a middle/high school program week will be teachers in a middle or high school. They will act as a liaison between you and the Institute staff, participate in all activities and lessons during the week, provide directions on how to get to places within the Historic Area, and offer suggestions for good teaching materials when visiting the gift shops.
