Participants will engage in learning using a variety of digital tools, including an interactive notebook (INB), designed to enhance rigorous instruction and student engagement through dynamic activities. All strategies, digital activities, and digital tools experienced can be leveraged in face-to-face or virtual learning environments.

The AVID presenter was great. The WICOR strategies opened my mind to many new ways I can practice reading/writing in between my lessons.
These two days were incredible. I learned a lot about collaboration, engagement, and note taking. I would really like to attend more AVID trainings since I did bring a lot of information back with me.
Overall the presenter was very engaging and the experience allowed for multiple teachers in the district to collaborate about the content.
