ALT Keynote Address Featuring Mitch Nobis, Teacher and Author What’s Happening? In a world where books are pulled off school shelves and teachers are measured by for-profit test scores (and 100 other wackadoodle factors impacting education in the 21st century), being a literacy educator goes from just an intensely hard job to an act of heroism. Teachers are amazing, and teacher-writer Mitch Nobis will talk about what’s on our minds, what’s happening, and where we go from here as literacy educators in 2024.
