Lori Admokom

Are you in need of some fun collegial collaboration? In this workshop, you won't be asked to join a committee, double-check your SLOs, or clean your classroom. Relax and have fun! You deserve it. If you laugh, smile, or get a creative jolt we've hit the jackpot.
This workshop requires full participation with video on. Because it's very interactive and it's important that Lori be able to see all participants on her Zoom screen, we're limiting participation to 15 participants.

Project SHINE Roundtable: The Present and Future of Student Coaching
Dr. Maricel Santos, SFSU and CCSF Project Shine Leaders, Coaches, Learners & Teachers
mgsantos@sfsu.edu / projectshine@gmail.com / wnewberry@ccsf.edu
Project SHINE, a collaboration between San Francisco State University and CCSF, has been placing student coaches in noncredit ESL classes for over 25 years, and in the process has helped thousands of immigrant learners in the Bay Area to meet their language learning and naturalization goals. In this roundtable presentation, Project SHINE leaders will briefly recount the history of the program, and coaches, learners, and teachers will share their experiences with the program. Then we will discuss visions for the program’s future.

Carolyn Cox
ccox@ccsf.edu
Now that many of us are back in person, dance is one fun way to build classroom community. Carolyn will demonstrate (with participant help) how teaching a line dance or folk dance can open up all kinds of connection, laughter and vocabulary. (Think "forward, back, under, over, stomp, slide, swing and funky")
