Session A Presentations & Descriptions
1. Brodie Kaster - Expanding Empathy With Technology
In 2008, adults spend an average of 18 minutes on their phones. In 2015 it rose to an average of 2 hours and 48 minutes; 280 million people would be considered phone addicts. Through experiential learning activities we will discover the restrictions technology gives us to connect, and how we can combat our declining rates of empathy and connections on our campuses.
2. Kristin Lilly-Porter - New to ASB?
Come learn how to structure your class, and resources to organize your first year!
3. Melissa Edsall - Middle School Basics
New to Middle School activities? Need ideas on how to structure, grade and run your class? Want some curriculum ideas? I'm here to help. If you've been around awhile this is the same as last year, so don't attend unless you want a refresher.
4. Allison Birakos - Organization your class for events
Looking for new ways to organize your students for events? Come check out how we use committees and categories at the high school level!

Session C Presentations & Descriptions

The Student Government class can be chaotic, but that doesn't mean it can't be organized!
