Receive a hard copy of the Key Trainer documentation and invoicing forms

5

Assumptions

• You’ll draw on your own ICA classroom experiences.

• The primary focus for teachers of the Initial ICA Training you will facilitate is to introduce teachers to the curriculum and motivate them to use it.

• The Trainer Guide is not a script. Presenting a workshop will require additional advance preparation and practice on your part.

6

What’s New? Many More slides!

• Though usually good training does not depend on PowerPoint slides, we have added MANY slides to the original presentation you attended.

• These slides are meant to PROMPT you of the training content. The slides will make it EASIER for you to present the training.

7

What’s new? PPT Slide Notes

• The original Trainer Guide has been updated with all of the new slides and instructions for them.

• In addition, the slides now have notes, so you may choose to use the slide notes as a guide as you go through your training.

8

What’s not new? You will still need to study…

• Even though you will have slide notes, you cannot go through the training with your head buried in them!

• You will need to spend ample time studying and practicing before you present.

• Practicing means going through sections in front of a mirror, or better yet, with another person.

See It on the Big Screen

• We will go through the PPT presentation to give an overview of the changes and of the overall structure.

• You will have time to read through with a partner shortly.

12

A Closer Look at the PPT

• Locate Appendix B: Trainer PowerPoint Notes in your

Trainer Guide.

• Work with a partner to read through and discuss the

slides.

• Use sticky notes to write down questions you have about

any specific slide. Tag the slide with the note. At the end

of the day, we will revisit these questions later to see if

they have been answered.

• You have about approximately 20 minutes!

If you see any mistakes, please write down the slide # and the mistake on a sticky for your facilitator.

13

Tagging the ICA Trainer Guide

• Take time to read through the Trainer Guide Introduction (pages 2 - 7).

• Create a sticky note for each section described in the Table of Contents on page 2. Abbreviate section titles as you wish.

• Attach the sticky note to the corresponding section in the Key Trainer Guide.

14

Touring the ICA Trainer Guide

• Number off 1 – 13. Find your matching partner if there are more than 13 people in the group.

• Each pair/person reviews a section of the Trainer Guide and reports back.

• In small groups, some participants may end up with 2 sections

• Use following slide to see your assigned section(s) to explore.

Trying It Out

Choose a section from the ICA Training-At-A-Glance Outline that you feel may be somewhat challenging. Take time to review this section.– Locate the Step-by-Step Instructions in the Key Trainer Guide

that correspond to your chosen sections.– Locate the Appendix B: Trainer PowerPoint Notes that

correspond to your chosen sections. Choose a partner to work with and do some acting!

– You will not have an actual PowerPoint screen, so just pretend.– One person pretends to be in an actual Key Training TOT

presenting the section while the other pretends to be the Key Trainer in the class. Switch roles and repeat. Pair up your pairs if time permits to present again in front of a larger “audience.

• Try to schedule your local program Initial ICA Training session in January or February. If you cannot, contact Denise Guckert, [email protected], as soon as possible.

• Remember that follow-up sessions can be in a face-to-face, webinar, or conference call format.

• Key Trainers will receive Survey Monkey links for participants to view and download survey responses via email for follow-up sessions.
