- IES Report on the Content Literacy Continuum (00:26:04)
2013 SIM Conference
Don Deshler, Patty Graner, Mike Hock -
An evaluation of a two year implementation of the Content Literacy Continuum (CLC) was conducted through the Institute for Education Sciences in 2012. The report offers an opportunity for us to learn, grow, and remind ourselves about the complexity of change in schools. In this session, we will highlight the findings in the report, discuss lessons learned and application of those lessons in future studies, and develop responses to common questions about the results.

- Implementation Through Effective Professional Development- Cooke, Ehren, Graner (00:27:54)
2000 SIM Conference -
It doesn’t matter how good Learning Strategies or Content Enhancement Routines are, if they are not used effectively and consistently by teachers in their instructional repertoires. Helping teachers incorporate these strategic tools in their daily teaching activities requires a sustained, systematic approach to professional development that is results-driven, school-focused, attentive to the phases of professional development, and mindful of a variety of delivery modes. The presenters, in collaboration with others, designed and implemented such a professional development system in a school district. In this session, participants will learn about this system and explore ways to incorporate this approach to SIM training in their settings.

- Implementing a School-Wide Literacy Plan at Delta Sierra Middle School (01:02:23) Geisick, Graving
2005 SIM Conference
Ken Geisick, former Principal of Delta Sierra Middle School in Stockton, Calif., and Peggy Graving, Lodi (Calif.) Unified School District Literacy Coach -
Winners of the 2003 SIM Innovation and the SIM Leadership Awards, Ken Geisick and Peggy Graving will share the magic of how staff at Delta Sierra Middle School in Stockton, Calif., implemented a school-wide literacy plan based on SIM. Th is urban, under-performing school more than doubled its required state growth target and made statistically signifi cant gains for both English Language Learners (ELL) and English Only Learners by creating a school-wide reading program designed around a package of SIM strategies and routines. In addition, Ken Geisick, now principal of Riverbank High School, and Ron Costa, Director of Educational Services, will share their insights on leading a district-wide SIM/CLC project.
- Implementing SIM in Higher Education Courses (00:46:18)
2008 SIM Conference
Barbara Duchardt, Northwestern State University, Natchitoches, LA -
This session is for teacher educators who would like to share how they implement SIM in higher education courses. We'll discuss SIM in the following areas: course syllabi, course requirements, course instructional materials, course implementation ideas, and activities, clinical and field based experiences and national and state standards.
- Implementing Writing with the Teaching Cause and Effect and HOTR Routines - Graner
-
2019 SIMposium
The Teaching Cause & Effect Routine can be useful to content teachers working on building students higher order reasoning and thinking muscles, but it can also be used effectively to help them produce an essay in which they support their reasoning. Instructions are provided at the end of the guidebook for writing and essay. We will practice the practical aspects of writing that essay - useful to your teachers learning how to use this routine.
- Increasing the Social IQ of Youth Using Technology (00:57:38)
2008 SIM Conference
Sue Vernon, Edge Enterprises -
The focus of this presentation wll be to describe and demonstrate an interactive multimedia (IM) program for teaching social skills to at-risk adolescents. The program provides self paced instruction in skills that are basic to communication, are important when dealing with authority figures and peers, and are typically listed as areas of skill deficits for youth with social adjustment issues. The skill lessons developed to date include Dealing with Critical Feedback, Coping with No, Accepting Advice, Negotiation, Apologizing, Involving Others, and Responding to Peer Pressure.
- Instructional Coaching: The Big Four: A Framework - Jim Knight, Jean Piazza, Sue Woordruff (02:55:21)

Thinking Devices Manual PDF - Implementing Strategic Math Series to Address Current Math Standards -Bradley Kaffar, Margaret Flores, Margaret Vanderwarn (00:58:38)
2018 KUCRL Learning Conference -
The Strategic Math Series (1991-1994) is an effective intervention for teaching computation (i.e., addition, subtraction,multiplication, and division) and place value (Mercer & Miller, 1992; Morin & Miller, 1998). Since publication of the manuals, mathematics standards have changed and now include a greater emphasis on the use of varied approaches to computation that requires conceptual understanding of numbers, operations, and relations between operations. This session will show participants how to implement evidence-based practices that impact students’ metacognitive processing necessary to engage in current mathematical practices such as the concrete-representational-abstract (CRA) sequence and explicit instruction. Simple changes can be made to the instructional procedures and materials to provide students with disabilities and students receiving tiered instruction with access to rigorous elementary level standards. Participants will have hands-on experiences with the manuals, mathematics manipulatives, and pictorial representations, so they can implement the Strategic Math Series and address mathematics standards with fidelity.

2008 SIM Conference
Nanette Fritschmann, Lehigh University, Bethlehem, PA -
The purpose of this presentation is to provide information about a research study designed to develop, evaluate and validate an instructional program for teaching the Inference Strategy, an inferencing an reading comprehension strategy, Further, participants will learn the steps associated with how to teach thee Inference Strategy in various classrooms. The goal associated with teaching the Inference Strategy is to improve students' ability to comprehend reading passages and to improve their ability to respond to inferential questions as required in most of their subject matter classes as well as on state assessments. Specific outcomes of the study and student data will be presented, including the results from a standardized assessment. At the end of this interactive session, participants will have learned the procedures of eh Inference Strategy and the outcomes related to a study of a reading comprehension strategy focusing on inferring the meaning from narrative text.

2009 SIM Conference
Barbara Duchardt, Dee Berlinghoff, Joyce Rademacher -
Are you planning to integrate SIM in your college/university classes? Have you already created SIM syllabi for your college/university classes? If you can answer yes to both of these quesitn,s, then this session is for you. Discussion will focus on 1) How to integrate SIM in course syllabi through syllabi sharing, planning and creating, 2) How to embed SIM objectives in your course syllabi along with the national and state professional content standards (NCATE, CEC, GLE, GEE); 3) How to evaluate/assess SIM course requirements in your classes (SIM assignment rubrics); 4) How to update the challenging school culture to make room for SIM (changing from ineffective to effective research based teaching practices); 5) How to crete a continuing SIM support network for higher education faculty.

The Essay Test-Taking Strategy is designed to help students deal effectively with the complex test-taking demands associated with state competency testes, including high-stakes tests and college entrance exams. Students are taught to analyze the essay question, organize the information they know, write their answer with a specific structure, and revise with edits to create a polished product. In this session, PD-ers will learn how to provide instruction to the teachers using this manual with students.

2019 SIMposium
This presentation will introduce suicide prevention and intervention to anyone who encounters students or individuals on a regular basis. Often those that are feeling suicidal or having suicidal thoughts reach out to someone they trust first, who may not have any training in suicide intervention. It is critically important, given the rising suicide rate, that as many people as possible are able to engage around intervention. The presenters will give an overview of the statistics around suicide, a look at common risk factors and also individual risk factors, warning signs, concrete steps around talking with someone who is suicidal, and finally resources, like Talking Together that can be used by teachers, administrators, family, or anyone else.
