Hope everyone’s summer is getting off to a great start!
I just wanted to clear something up that appears to be confusing some people…
I received a phone call from Dave Perry from APL Associates about my ebook eTeach: A Teacher Resource.
You see, several years ago when I first started teaching I was extremely fortunate to be able to attend two workshops with APL Associates. I kid you not when I say that these workshops forever changed the way I teach. I just wouldn’t be the teacher I am today if it hadn’t been for these workshops.
Therefore, it makes sense that my ebook, eTeach: A Teacher Resource was influenced by APL Associates. In fact, one of the first chapters in the book is heavily based on the strategies I learned from APL Associates. I make it very clear in the book who taught me these strategies and provide a link to the APL website. Again, if your school is looking for a workshop for their teachers this is a no-brainer…just simply the best.
However, here’s where the confusion comes into play…
APL Associates has recently come out with their own book called, Teaching: The Book. This is NOT the same book as my eTeach: A Teacher Resource. In fact, you cannot even buy their book unless you attend one of their workshops. That’s right…they don’t sell it anywhere else.
The problem is people are attending the workshop and thinking that they already have “the book” because they have mine. I just want to set the record straight that they are not the same book AND if you are lucky enough to attend one of the APL workshops then it would be silly not to get their book as well.
Hope that clears up any confusion.
And again, if you or your administrators are looking for a great workshop for next school year, send them to: www.aplassociates.com
Enjoy your summer…you deserve it!
Best Wishes,
Adam
