Our second annual summer Community of Practice workshop will feature a mixture of learning, discussion, and action planning. Our goals are to create community among teachers using the Legislative Semester, share ideas and resources, collaboratively address challenges, integrate best practices, and explore high quality resources.

This workshop is designed for teachers who have already piloted the Legislative Semester, or who use the full program already.

New teachers interested in learning more about the Legislative Semester should register for the New Teacher Orientation.

Workshop Highlights:

1. Panel discussion on government transparency with leaders of the Wisconsin Freedom of Information Council.

2. A full afternoon at the Wisconsin Capitol to learn from staff who write bills, staff committees, and provide fiscal estimates.
