Welcome to GATE!

The Georgia Association of Teacher Educators (GATE) is a state organization and serves as an affiliate of the national Association of Teacher Educators (ATE). ATE is the only national, individual membership educational association which is solely committed to the improvement of teacher education. ATE works diligently to improve education nationally, as GATE does in the state of Georgia. GATE is dedicated to the improvement of teacher education with members that include educators from Georgia's public and private universities and colleges and P-12 schools. Members of GATE come from a variety of backgrounds and represent a broad spectrum of interests. GATE members share a common belief that the quality of teacher education can be improved best through the cooperative efforts of all concerned.

Description of the Workshop:
This workshop will provide educators with opportunities to discuss how to transition from “eyes on text” to “close-reading.” Participants will learn how to incorporate close-reading resources into their classroom seamlessly. Participants will explore current student work, live teaching videos, and research-based resources to support literacy development. Lastly, participants will discuss the benefits of using culturally responsive texts and narratives to engage and motivate students.
Intended Audience:
All educators are welcome
Intended Experience Level:
Beginner, Intermediate, and Advanced
Presenter Bio:
