Generally speaking, districts use our services for entire day(s) for inservice days, summer staff development, and fall and spring workdays. A one-day workshop would run $1300 plus travel. Each added day is $1000. For figuring travel costs, figure about $100/day additional for each successive radii below. All of our instructors are classroom teachers in the southeastern U.S.
We are Advanced Calculator Solutions, a staff development company that designs and delivers professional development workshops for high school and middle school math and science teachers in the use of the Texas Instruments' graphing calculators and TI laboratory peripherals, such as the CBL, CBL2, LabPro and the CBR.
We do staff development math and science workshop training in your local school or district using using the TI graphing calculators.
The level of instruction in our technology and content workshops is able to be customized to any grade level and experience level of your math and science teachers.
Math and Science workshop instruction may focus on advanced use of lists, programming, computer interfacing, and the CBL. Districts even request specific content themes. That is Algebra, Geometry (83, 84 and 89), AP Calculus (83, 84 and 89), AP Statistics, Chemistry, Physics, Physical Science, and Biology. Districts even split staff development days apart. That is half of the day for Algebra and the other half for AP Calculus, for example.
We do the professional development workshops for high school and middle school math and science teachers in their home schools or school district. Our workshop instructor will come to your school.
The fact that we come to you enables your department and district to not have to pay for travel and hotel expenses for those teachers engaging in a staff development activity. In other words, every teacher in your department or many teachers in your school district can participate.
Anytime.
A math, science, or TI calculator workshop can be scheduled in an individual school or school district for a teacher workday.
Math, science, and TI calculator workshops can be scheduled during the summer months. They can be scheduled for the in-service week before the school year begins.
Math, science, and TI calculator workshops can be scheduled for a half-day, full in-service day, or multiple in-service days...even Saturdays.
You design your own math or science workshop by selecting one of our standard workshops or customizing your workday training to include any of our program topics or a related department-specific topic.
Minimize your district's travel costs. We will come to your school or district.
Math, science, and calculator workshops are available for groups of virtually any size. All departments are welcome. Most math and science workshops will qualify for license renewal credit in your school district.
Many of us have already seen that our students react positively to the TI graphing calculators. The TI graphing calculators lend a concrete and interactive component to classroom instruction. Our math and science calculator workshops are also tailored to the NCTM and NSTA standards.
Eliminate the cost of hotels and rental cars from your department's staff development budget. Everyone in your mathematics or science department can engage in further professional development.
