behavior and more.
Enhance learning experiences with training games and adult

Registration is now open for CAEYC's 4th Annual Training
the Early Childhood Trainer Conference and CAEYC members

Preliminary workshop details, a printable brochure and
online registration are available at
http://caeyc.aaiden.com/main/page/TrainingtheEarlyChildhoodTrainer.
Here is a sampling of the 20 workshops you'll find at the
2007 event:
Open Space Technology (OST)
No need to fear this computer-less technology! Imagine open
space in a workshop room rather than rows of chairs, open
space on the agenda, and open space in your mind for ideas
and conversation to flow. Adult educator Kim Ratz
introduces conference participants to OST - a facilitation
technique in which the participants design the agenda and
leave with knowledge gleaned from one another.
Nurturing and Growing Early Childhood Trainers: The Trainer
Enhancement Project
First 5 Alameda County shares training insight from their
18-month Trainer Enhancement Project. John Gunnarson,
Lauren Witten, and Joya Chavarin will explore observation
and analysis of other trainers' presentations; a practicum
presentation with feedback, metacognitive training
processes, and in-depth training on adult learning,
workshop planning, facilitation skills, cultural competency
skills, and business practices.
Let the Games Begin!
Keith Pentz, one of the highest-rated presenters at the
2006 conference, returns with the message that it's okay
for the brain to think that you're playing when you're
actually learning! Training games can be an effective
delivery tool for information and help "clear out" unwanted
data in the brain. Try out games that are fun and
educational for adult learners!
Just added! Media: A Tool to Support Learning
Learn how the award-winning caregiver series A Place of Our
Own/Los Ninos en Su Casa and PBS Ready to Learn children's
programs (such as Sesame Street) can enrich young
childrens' learning experiences. Tips for productively
incorporating media into curriculum will be shared. More
details on this new workshop will soon be available!
Information on many more of the workshops, plus
registration and hotel details is available at
http://caeyc.aaiden.com/main/page/TrainingtheEarlyChildhoodTrainer
or contact CAEYC at (916) 486-7750 or info@caeyc.org.
Thanks Cheterra for the great info each week.
