in Early Childhood Education,

Lilian Katz, Ph.D

Thursday, January 22, 2009 7:00-8:30 pm

at TELLABS (1415 West Diehl Road, Naperville, IL)

DCM welcomes Dr. Katz for a practical discussion of how to apply what parents know to develop an active learning partnership with their children. She believes that all children have innate learning dispositions and that how we nurture those dispositions is crucial in encouraging children to become lifelong learners. Dr. Katz has been helping parents and teachers for over 30 years to recognize and support the inextricable connection between knowledge, skills and dispositions in young children so that they become lifelong learners.

Dr. Katz taught at the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign for more than three decades and has lectured in all 50 states and in 43 countries. She is currently the Principal Investigator for the Illinois Early Learning Project and continues to lecture and consult around the world. Her new book, Intellectual Emergencies is expected to be available in January, 2009.
