BPW Holds June Meeting Area Teachers To Learn Innovative Teaching Methods Nearly 150 area teachers are learning the progressive Junior Great Books teaching methods this summer in Beckley. The Junior Great Books program 'in W.Va. is a four-year project ofthe W.Va. Humanities Council to estab- lish the innovative and proven effec- tive method for teaching humanities curriculum -- literature, history, civics, fine arts, culture--in schools throughout W.Va. The training is sponsored by the Council and supported by the W. Va. State Department of Education. The first two days, teachers learn the "shared inquiry" method which in- corporates open discussions with interpretive reading. The last two days concentrate on specialized training in creative writing and creative dramatics, presented by Poetry Alive. Beckley is one of the ten training sites in W.Va. this summer. The training is conducted by staff from the Great Books Foundation of Chi- cago. The teachers attending are from schools in Raleigh, Summers, Fay- ette, Monroe, Wyoming, Mercer, Greenbrier and Nicholas counties. They join the 624 teachers statewide who completed the training in 1989 and 1990. They are among the 653 teachers, reading specialists, librari- ans and school administrators par- ticipating statewide this year. Training for Junior Great Books is free to qualifying W.Va. teachers.
