Middle School Assembly - The Learning Game

Bill Cordes embraces middle school students with enthusiasm with his “Learning Game” concepts. In this program Bill prepares students for high school by teaching them how the game of education is played.

Once the foundation is set Bill next lays down the strategies for creating success in education by learning to maximize your efforts. Students will learn, retain and be able to apply the following strategies:

Chunking and Modeling:
Chunking is mastering the rate at which we learn by developing our inate ability to break things down into smaller pieces. We all learn at different rates, and students who live in an age where information is being thrown at them at alarming rates must have the ability to regulate their own learning process.

Modeling is being aware of your surroundings and being able to tap into the ultimate resource - people. People are the most wonderful resource, and learning to relate to others brings richness into our lives. Modeling is a skill and once mastered can increase our life opportunities geometrically!

Power of Imagination:
My challenge for you today is to begin to create your own 5-6 year plan! Bill Cordes from the Learning Game Learning to have a target increases the chance of hitting it, and it is when students reach the age of middle school that they can first begin to understand power of having a goal and sticking with it. This is prime time for teaching students the skill set of goal-setting, and Bill Cordes will challenge your students to create a plan in a fun-interactive way. They won’t even know till they are done!

Class IT UP!:
Is Bills copyrighted technology for student success! Born out of seven and a half-years of working on his undergraduate degree, learning how to do school-wrong and a transcript filled with failures Bill had mastered the art of what not to do, and it lead him straight to the path of knowing what works in the education  environment. After applying his Class IT UP! technology Bill finished out his undergraduate and graduate degrees with a 3.95 cummulative GPA. The difference that made the difference was six key distinctions about how the education environment works. Your middle school will learn to master the six key distinctions.
