Teaching Theatrical Institute 2015

Teachers and Arts Educators converged at our annual Theatrical Teaching Institute (TTI) last week - a six-day professional development opportunity. Participants experienced, practiced, and then demonstrated Roundabout's Theatrical Teaching Framework as they created lesson plans they will take into their classrooms. Our mission: Use theatre to enhance teacher practice and deepen student learning. The outcome: Fully engaged teachers who are ready to transform their classrooms.

TTI held at the American Airlines Theatre on Thursday, August 20, 2015.

"TTI was an inspiring and enlightening experience. The Framework provided the tools to use theatrical techniques in any classroom. The dive-in and immersive experience awakened an incredible creative potential in every participant! I am truly grateful that I was able to be a part of this extraordinary week." Megan Mekjian, Columbia Secondary School

"TTI taught me to open myself up to taking risks - as an adult student - and to always give space to my student for that same reason." Katie DeVries, Elementary/Middle School Teacher at St. Hilda's & St. Hugh's School

I loved the way you engaged everyone from first year teachers to veterans." Leroy Andino, Middle School Teachers at Esperanza Preparatory Academy
