The K-8 REAL Institute is a 5 day, 33-38 contact-hour course
that prepares elementary and middle-school educators to teach
REAL Entrepreneurship at the K-8 level. Institute participants
interact with experienced REAL facilitators, prepare lesson
and course plans and experience the highlights of the REAL course
as their students will. The $1,500 tuition includes training,
curriculum, most meals, lodging, and PLU credit.
Training sessions are based on the “experiential learning
cycle,” which allows participants to learn using hands-on
experience. The experiential learning process taught in the
training Institutes helps teachers implement experiential
learning in their REAL classes and all other classes. REAL
therefore exemplifies the new educational vision advocated
by many of the nation’s business leaders and educators.
Each participant will receive a copy of the recently revised
and updated K-8 REAL Entrepreneurship curriculum, which is
broken down into three core components: REAL Entrepreneurial
Enterprises, REAL Money Sense and REAL Civic Concerns. Several
activities from each component will be covered during the
Institute.
