The day-long event will include a brief welcoming reception, a morning session, catered lunch, and afternoon session. The morning session will be a detailed presentation exploring the best ways to administer a successful Advanced Placement program. Presenter will be W.C. Smith, Director of Curriculum and Instruction at Goose Creek Consolidated Independent School District, Baytown, Texas. Advanced Placement programs give high school students an opportunity to take college-level courses in high school for high school credit. Then, by scoring well on the Advanced Placement exams, students can either gain college credit for these courses or can omit lower level courses and immediately take courses at a higher or more advanced level in college.
Lunch is included.
Interested persons may register for the Round Table by visiting the University's Office of Continuing Education located in the Sue and Radcliffe Killam Library, room 332 West. For more information, please call the Office of Continuing Education at 326-2700.
