The Teaching With Purpose Conference (TWPC) invites proposals for presentations and workshops for its 5th Annual Conference at Roosevelt High School October 10th and 11th, 2014

The TWPC is open to educators, community stakeholders, parents, and students to discuss, share and celebrate culturally effective methods for teaching all students. The conference will provide information, tools and materials relating to culturally responsive teaching; workshops, parent engagement seminars, and a town hall addressing Oregon Senate Bill 103, which adopts a multicultural education policy for Oregon public schools.

The following are workshop strands that embrace key content areas that will assist educators in: *

*Culturally Relevant Pedagogy Teaching, Multicultural Education, including Common Core Standards, and prepare students to be college or career ready.

* Workshop presenters must choose one of the workshop strands. Please note that proposals will be judged on the relevance to one of the strands. The workshops should be "hands on" and interactive.

*Professional Development in Multicultural Education: This strand seeks to highlight best practices in Multicultural Education.

*Culturally Responsive Teaching: Pedagogical strategies that include diverse learners’ cultural knowledge, prior experiences and learning styles should be the focal point of this strand.
