Cost: The per participant cost for each workshop will be $175. Dr. Valentine will invoice the school/district for that fee of $175 per person.

Registration: Each workshop is limited to 20 participants. Contact Dr. Valentine directly at ValentineJ@Missouri.edu before Oct. 20. He will process your registration request in the order in which they are received and invoice you as appropriate.

Overview: The IPI is a process for profiling school-wide student cognitive engagement during class time. The IPI process is implemented by a team of certified teachers who serve as the data collectors, the organizers of the data for faculty study, and the leaders of the faculty study of the data. School administrators should not serve as data collectors, but they do need to understand the IPI Process so they can support the team of teachers who lead the Process. The IPI Process is a stimulus for goal-setting and professional development relating to increasing student engagement in higher-order/deeper forms of thinking while simultaneously decreasing disengagement during learning time.

Additional Details:

• Each workshop will include a mid-morning and mid-afternoon break and a 30-minute lunch break between 11:30 a.m. and 12:00 p.m. It is recommended that participants bring their own lunch because there will not be time to leave the workshops setting to have lunch.
• All participants should plan to be in attendance from the start to completion of the workshop in order to obtain certification to use the IPI and/or IPI-T Process.
• All participants should bring and plan to use, as needed, a face mask to mitigate the impact of COVID on others during the workshop activities. The mask will be needed at varied times during the day, particularly during the guided practice observations that will take place in real classrooms.

Instructional Practices Inventory Level 1 Workshop

The IPI workshop will begin with an overview of the IPI categories and the protocols for data collection. Detailed practice in the recognition of the IPI categories and consistent application of the data collection protocols enable each participant to develop both validity and reliability in the process. The skill development begins with written scenarios to develop basic understanding of the protocols for data collection and the instructional activities that fit each category. The workshop then transitions to a local school to make observations in classroom settings. All observations are discussed with peers and with the trainer.

Instructional Practices Inventory Technology Workshop
The Instructional Practices Inventory Technology (IPI-T) Process was developed to provide critical data for faculty about student engagement throughout the school day focusing on technology infusion as a component of engagement. Using the data, faculty and school leaders can design strategies for increasing levels of active, engaged learning and higher-order instruction while reducing the degree of student disengagement during learning time. In addition to fostering positive instructional change, the process can also serve as an indicator of the relative impact of a school’s technology investment and instructional interventions. During the workshop, participants will develop the skills to document student engagement through the use of technology and learn how to use the profiles to engage faculty in collaborative learning conversations about engagement, instructional change, technology integration and school-wide instructional goals.
