SUMMARY:Evidence-Based Improvement Strategies in Early Childhood 2025-26
DESCRIPTION:Would you like to learn new teaching strategies to use with your students? Evidence-Based Improvement Strategies (EBIS) are teaching methods\, strategies\, and interventions that have been scientifically proven to be effective. EBIS are based on research and are intended to help teachers provide students with high-quality instruction. EBIS can help improve student outcomes and take the guesswork out of teaching by providing specific approaches. \nEach month\, we will explore a specific EBIS that is effective with preschoolers. We will look at the components of that EBIS\, how to implement it with fidelity\, look at it in action\, how to evaluate its effectiveness\, and many other aspects. Several resources will also be provided for each specific EBIS. If you are interested in learning new teaching methods and strategies\, this is the place to be. \nAll meeting times:  3:30PM-4:30PM. Register for all sessions that you wish to attend. \nPlease register by 3:00 PM the day before the session you wish to attend to ensure you receive the login information in time.  \nREGISTER HERE \nTopics: \n\nReinforcement (October 6\, 2025)\nTime Delay (November 4\, 2025)\nVisual Supports (December 1\, 2025)\nTask Analysis (January 6\, 2026)\nSocial Narratives (February 4\, 2026)\nAAC (March 4\, 2026)\n\nAll events are offered virtually and at no cost. (EL-TAI grant covers the cost for attendees.) \nAudience: This is a statewide event and is open to anyone who works with young children and wants to learn new teacher strategies. The focus will be on children ages 3-5. \n\nThe Early Learning and Technical Assistance and Implementation grant CFDA# 84.173A acknowledges the support of the Wisconsin Department of Public Instruction (WDPI) in the development of this federally-funded grant project.
