Review for American Modeling Teachers Association, Shelbyville, KY, USA
Please consider adding the American Modeling Teachers Association (AMTA) to charities you support. $500 provides a 2 week workshop for STEM teachers. Backed by education research from elite universities, teachers learn an interactive engagement pedagogy called Modeling Instruction. The pedagogy doubles students' conceptual understanding over traditional teaching methods.
I am honored to volunteer as a Board Member of this non-profit organization that has trained thousands of teachers since 1995.
Review for American Modeling Teachers Association, Shelbyville, KY, USA
AMTA is focused like a laser on helping teachers improve learning outcomes. It is based on Educational Research by top professors across the country and has solid evidence of dramatic improvements to learning outcomes.
I spent two weeks learning how to implement better teaching methods at an AMTA workshop and I have been delighted with the improvements my students have made learning physics. This organization is very lean. Every dollar donated goes a long ways to improving science education.
