Called Theory into Practice, several Moffat County high school teachers spent nearly a week learning effective teaching strategies last October at the invitation of the Colorado Education Association. When presenting the new teaching methods to the board of education last month MCHS principal Thom Schnellinger said the new teaching methods are aimed at engaging students by collaborating across networks and leading by influence, agility and adaptability. Schnellinger said there is a focus on initiative and entrepreneurialism, effective oral and written communication, accessing and analyzing information and curiosity and imagination.
