In-depth training on how to teach ACI Foundation Course 8
ACI Classics House is proud to present our Teacher Training 8, an in-depth training on how to teach ACI 8.
ACI 8
Death and the Realms of Existence
ACI 8, Death and the Realms of Existence, is an exciting course in the 18 ACI Foundation Courses. In it, we learn about many factual details from timeless wisdom regarding the mechanics of life on planet Earth. This Teacher Training 8 will take us through in-depth training on how to teach this course.Our classes will be led by several different teachers who have received ACI certification. We will learn about different student types and how best to reach them. Each student will teach several different practice teachings about content from Death and the Realms of Existence as our teachers assign it. We will teach to a group of our peers, who will critique our performance and offer suggestions about how we can improve. We will write class plans in advance of teaching that we will adhere to as we move through our practice teachings, so that we may experience learning the techniques being taught.Once all prerequisites are met we will receive a certificate of completion, which will count towards becoming certified Classics House teachers at the lecturer level. Once all Classics House teacher trainings are completed, we will have the opportunity to receive Classics House certification at the teacher level.
Course organization and expectations
Please note that this teacher training is not about learning the content of Death and the Realms of Existence. Rather, teachers will teach key content from that course for teaching and practice purposes. The purpose of our teacher trainings is to train teachers how to best reach and have an impact on students, not to go through the content of Death and the Realms of Existence. We assume you will have studied and mastered the content of Death and the Realms of Existence when you took it originally. You must have completed Death and the Realms of Existence (all homeworks, quizzes, and final exam, and have received a certificate of completion), to be eligible to take this Teacher Training 8 for credit (You must have completed five ACI courses including ACI 8 to participate for credit. Credit includes fulfilling all the course requirements plus a final exam to receive a certificate of completion.). You may take the course as a guest if you wish; you do not have to fulfill the prerequisites and you will not receive a certificate.REQUIREMENTS
