2026 CSI Summer Conference: Teach Together

Dual credit teaching is a messy middle. You're asked to deliver college rigor to teenagers with jobs, family responsibilities, and uneven preparation. Do problems like inconsistency, readiness, or communication appear in your classroom?

This session introduces a straightforward way of thinking about those problems: see them more clearly through your students' eyes, rephrase them into something you can influence, and sketch one small change you could try together next term.

Bring one real problem from your dual credit course. You'll leave with a clearer picture of what's happening and one concrete, student-facing experiment you're willing to try. No pedagogy 101, no promises to fix the system, just a thoughtful approach to working on the class with the people sitting in it.
