Daniela is orginially from Brazil and she's currently studying at Columbia University's Teacher's College in New York. We loved having her at Morningside for the Summer Institute this year! Here's what Daniela had to say about her experience: "Getting to know more about MMGI (The Morningside Model of Generative Instruction) has inspired me as a behavior analyst and teacher. MMGI's phases are comprehensive, addressing the learner's foundational skills all the way to the application of what has been learned at school in novel circumstances outside the classroom. The connection between John Dewey's ideas and behavior analysis is fantastic and sets the stage for a new perspective on discovery learning. Rather than having just a few learners thrive while others are carried on throughout the school years without truly benefitting, MMGI demonstrates that discovery learning can be engineered by intelligent instructional design, promoting the process of contingency adduction." We look forward to seeing how Daniela applies what she learned here in her work!

Chris came from Arizona to join us for MSI this year and his favorite thing about the experience was being part of community that's passionate about student learning. He enjoyed learning about our model with our instructors and faculty and meeting experienced educators from all over the world. We look forward to hearing how he uses what he learned here in his daily work in Arizona!

Deanna from Florida has 30 years of experience in education and joined us for three weeks of MSI this year. She says her favorite thing was being around young people with a passion for precision teaching and bringing progress to our educational system. A big takeaway for her was that bringing components of an effective model to a system can benefit students and support growth, even when the whole model can't be implemented in its entirety. We loved having Deanna here and are so grateful for educators like her, who stay committed to learning throughout their careers.

Amanda from West Virginia says one of her favorite things about the Morningside Summer Institute was the feeling of community at Morningside. MSI gives participants a chance to learn about effective teaching and see it in action in classrooms while connecting with a group of professionals who are committed to facilitating student learning. We're so glad Amanda was able to join us this summer and we look forward to hearing how she uses what she learned here in the future!
