What experiences led to the development of the online workshops?
Rosalind developed her Curriculum-Based Readers Theatre work largely in association with her work for The John F. Kennedy Center for the Performing Arts Partners in Education Program. She has traveled around the United States presenting her professional development workshops for thousands of teachers and conducting classroom residencies and modeling sessions since 1994. This body of work has been so enthusiastically greeted by educators that Rosalind decided to embark on this attempt to reach far more teachers than she as an individual live traveling presenter can reach. The goal of this project is to make the CBRT process widely available to teachers. Workshops offered online have the potential to reach teachers worldwide, thus affecting affect the practices of great numbers of teachers and therefore students.
