The Alberta Teachers’ Association (ATA) hosts an annual conference for substitute teachers in Alberta. Organizing this conference is one of the ways the ATA recognizes the valuable service that substitute teachers provide.
The conference is an excellent opportunity for networking and professional development. Sessions are geared specifically towards the needs of substitute teachers.
This session is guided by the following focusing questions; What is effective classroom management? How is effective classroom management different for a substitute teacher compared to a contract teacher? How can substitute teachers create and reinforce learning environments that enable all learners to thrive?
