TIPSters, I'm thinking of proposing an "Innovative Program" for the Society for Research in Adolescence meeting in Chicago 2000. What I'd like to do is have a session on "Teaching Adolescence and Teaching Adolescents." That is, I'd like to have a few panelists discuss their approach to teaching a class on adolescence or even just on that phase in life (if you teach a lifespan course). Then, I'd like to group the audience participants and have people share their innovative teaching methods for the various areas of adolescence. Then, each group could report out the innovative strategies that people use. In a way, we'd be discussing innovative teaching strategies for a course on adolescence. However, the deadline for submission is postmarked by July 27, 1999. If you are interested, contact me ASAP. Thanks, Rob Weisskirch, MSW, Ph.D. Department of Child and Adolescent Studies California State University, Fullerton P.O. Box 6868 Fullerton, CA 92834-6868 (714) 278-2896
