NISOD Announces Its Raleigh, North Carolina Workshop

Austin, Texas, August 25, 2017 – The National Institute for Staff and Organizational Development (NISOD) announces its next Regional Workshop, scheduled for December 1, 2017. The workshop will take place at the Embassy Suites by Hilton Crabtree in Raleigh, North Carolina.

During the workshop, titled “Shift Happens… Again and Again: Transforming Tried, True, and Tired Teaching,” participants learn why and how pedagogy needs to change. “Effective teachers understand that what worked years ago may no longer be meaningful to today’s students and their career aspirations,” said Workshop Facilitator, Teacher, and Author, Steve Piscitelli. “This workshop will help educators provide opportunities for their students to experience individual successes and to connect course concepts to life beyond the classroom.”

“Steve Piscitelli has been an extremely popular presenter at our annual conference for many years,” said Edward J. Leach, NISOD’s Executive Director. “Participants in this workshop will greatly benefit from his extensive knowledge about the history and future of teaching and learning.”
