Read more about the annual conference here. \n \n \n \n \n \n Q: Who should attend this symposium? \n \n \n \n \n\n \n \n \n \n A: Anyone interested in adult and family literacy in Texas is welcome at the symposium. The people who will gain the most are instructors at community-based adult literacy organizations and nonprofits. Volunteer tutors and teachers are especially welcome! When we create the symposium program\, we use the broadest definition of “literacy”\, to include all of Adult Foundational Education: adult basic education\, English as an additional language\, high school equivalency\, digital literacy\, and workforce readiness\, along with other kinds of teaching and learning. \n \n \n \n \n \n Q: I don't live in this region. Can I still attend? \n \n \n \n \n\n \n \n \n \n A: YES! Anyone who lives in Texas is welcome at any Literacy Texas symposium.  \n \n \n \n \n \n Q: Why should I attend? \n \n \n \n \n\n \n \n \n \n Two words: LOCAL + FREE! Each symposium program includes both key topics of universal interest to adult literacy programs\, and a focus on the local needs of the region. When you complete our Annual Survey every year\, we use the results to invite speakers and presenters on topics you said you particularly wanted and needed. Furthermore\, registration is free. You won’t need a large budget for travel or an overnight stay\, in the vast majority of cases. We hope that many folks from the same organization can come to the symposium – there’s no limit on how many people can attend from one place. It’s a lot harder to send lots of people to conferences\, since we know costs stack up pretty quickly.  \n \n \n \n \n \n Q: How much does registration cost? \n \n \n \n \n\n \n \n \n \n \n A: The symposium is free to attend. Thanks to a generous grant from the Texas Workforce Commission\, Literacy Texas can cover the costs of your tuition\, any meals and snacks offered\, materials\, and other resources.  Please be aware that in recent years\, between 15% and 30% of registrants are no-shows at our training events. Every one of these costs us money (since we’ve already paid for food\, materials\, and more). If you’ve registered for a Literacy Texas event but then find you can no longer attend\, PLEASE get in touch to cancel your registration. \n \n \n \n \n \n \n Q: Do you offer PD credit? \n \n \n \n \n\n \n \n \n \n \n A: Yes! Literacy Texas offers PD credit in conjunction with TCALL. Certificates of completion will be awarded after the event. Complete the survey after the training is finished to give your details and get your certificate. Surveys will be sent via email in the days following the training.  Please pay attention to the due dates communicated at your symposium – after each event is wrapped up\, we will not be able to go back and re-issue your PD certificate. If you know you’ll need a certificate at a later date\, please take care to request it in a timely manner! \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n PROGRAM\, SESSIONS\, & SPEAKERS \n \n \n \n See the schedule outline below; detailed descriptions of the workshops will be linked here when confirmed. \n \n \n \n \n \n \n Click here to see details about the sessions and speakers\n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n Schedule: Saturday\, February 22\, 2025 \n \n \n \n Schedule will be kept as current as possible but is subject to change; check back here for updates \n \n \n \n 8:00 AM – 8:30 AM: CHECK-IN\, BREAKFAST \n \n \n \n 8:30 AM – 8:45 AM: WELCOME\, OPENING REMARKS \n \n \n \n Dr. Ida Acuña-Garza\, South Texas Literacy CoalitionDr. Jenny McCormack Walker\, Literacy Texas \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n 9:00 AM – 10:15 AM Session 1 (75 min) \n \n \n \n Accountability – Telling Your StorySabrina Walker-Hernandez\, Supporting World Hope\, LLC (Nonprofit Management) \n \n \n \n Enhancing ESL Instruction with AI: Practical Tools for Engaging LearningDr. Irene Ramos\, TCALL \n \n \n \n Understanding Literacy in a Wider ContextDr. Ida Acuña-Garza\, South Texas Literacy Coalition \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n 10:30 AM – 11:45 AM Session 2 (75 min) \n \n \n \n ESL Alive\, Awake\, and Fun*Karen Peiser\, TCALL*Repeated in session 3 \n \n \n \n English for Employability: Purposeful Planning for Adult LearnersKenya Preuninger\, Pearson Education \n \n \n \n Effective PACT (Parent And Child Together) TimeKarla Rodriguez\, Educator \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n 12:00 PM – 12:45 PM: WORKING LUNCH + KEYNOTE SPECIAL GUEST SPEAKER: Amanda Johnston\, 2024 Texas Poet Laureate \n \n \n \n “Examining Life Through Literacy” + Time to visit exhibitors and author tables \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n 1:00 PM – 2:00 PM Session 3 (60 min) \n \n \n \n ESL Alive\, Awake\, and Fun*Karen Peiser\, TCALL*Repeated from session 2 \n \n \n \n Financial Literacy & BudgetingDr. Irene Ramos\, TCALL \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n 2:15 PM – 3:15 PM Session 4 (60 min) \n \n \n \n Motivating Reluctant ReadersDr. Arlene Longoria\, BLOOM ProjectCassidy Martinez\, BLOOM Project \n \n \n \n Teaching Civics & CitizenshipRegion One ESC – Adult Education \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n 3:15 PM – 3:30 PM: FAREWELL & DOOR PRIZES \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n Click here to see details about the sessions and speakers\n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n EXHIBITORS \n \n \n \n Author – Roy Cervantes Author – Elizabeth Huerta Author – David Leija Author – Faustino Lopez Author – Rosa Esthela Mora Author – David Norec Author – Victor Vasquez Essential Education Just Right Reader Literacy ConneXus PaperPie Learning Pearson Education Region One ESC Adult Education \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n DOWNLOADS \n \n \n \n Download a flyer to display at your location or send to others who may be interested in attending the symposium. \n \n \n \n \n \n \n Click here to get the flyer\n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n Download a printable 2-page symposium program (PDF). \n \n \n \n \n \n \n Click here to get the program\n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n SPECIAL THANKS TO: \n \n \n \n South Texas Literacy Coalition \n \n \n \n UTRGV \n \n \n \n The Texas Center for Advancement of Literacy & Learning (TCALL) \n \n \n \n The Texas Workforce Commission \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n STAY IN THE KNOW - \n \n \n \n \n \n \n click here to go to the literacy texas calendar\n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n click here to see the national literacy calendar\n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n Or get news directly from Literacy Texas: \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n Checked/updated: 2/26/25 URL:https://www.literacytexas.org/calendar/2025-symposium-far-west/ CATEGORIES:Literacy Texas Events,Symposium,Training ATTACH;FMTTYPE=image/png:https://www.literacytexas.org/wp-content/uploads/GOOGLE-COVER-Far-West-2025-1200-x-300-px.png END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTART;TZID=America/Chicago:20241115T080000 DTEND;TZID=America/Chicago:20241115T151500 DTSTAMP:20260530T110004 CREATED:20240920T031618Z LAST-MODIFIED:20241125T063403Z UID:4902-1731657600-1731683700@www.literacytexas.org SUMMARY:DFW Literacy Symposium DESCRIPTION:Funded by the Professional Development Support for Nonprofit Adult Literacy Organizations grant from the Texas Workforce Commission\, regional symposia provide free professional development for volunteers and staff of nonprofit\, community-based organizations.
