IMPORTANT NOTICE: To earn CEUs for listening, you MUST sign up and listen to this episode on our website to get credit. To listen for the fun of learning? Just push play! Email us at [email protected] for further assistance. For a variety of reasons, classroom management systems aren't always readily adopted in our schools. Could it be because they're too hard to maintain? Or ineffective? This week, we take a look at one such, easy-to-use, simple-to-master system, instructional control. Join us as we review chair choosing, work picking, and data analyzing to get to determine if instructional choice may be right for you! This episode is available for 1.0 LEARNING CEU.
