Two educational workshops will be held at Girls Preparatory School next week. GPS is located at 205 Island Ave. in North Chattanooga.
The events, sponsored by the Tennessee Association of Independent Schools, are open to both member and nonmember schools with the association.
* Tuesday: "Flipping the Classroom: Getting Off the Stage" will be held in the GPS Caldwell Commons from noon to 3 p.m.
The forum discusses an environment that personalizes learning, increases student-teacher and student-student interaction, with a goal of greater student understanding of key concepts.
This workshop is free to TAIS member schools, $25 for all others. Reservations are required, since lunch is included. Email Kristi Bryson at kbryson@gps.edu
* Friday: "Engagement 2.0" will be held from 11 a.m. to 3:30 p.m.
The forum shares how schools approach online engagement with alumni and others. Comprised of small group activities and discussion time, it is particularly suited for people in admissions, advancement/development, alumni relations and communications/marketing.
Preregistration is required by Wednesday with TAIS at www.taistn.com/page.cfm?p=562. Cost of the workshop is $70 for representatives of TAIS member schools, $90 for nonmember schools.
Registration links for both workshops can be found on the GPS website, www.gps.edu.
