The Ford Partnership for Advanced Studies (Ford PAS) Regional Mini-Institute was held last week (Jan. 22-23) in San Antonio.
The teacher professional development event was hosted by Alamo Community College District at its Advanced Technology Center.
The event was organized through the collaborative efforts of Ford Motor Company Fund; the Greater San Antonio Chamber of Commerce; the San Antonio Hispanic Chamber of Commerce and the Alamo Community College District.
Teachers were taught how to incorporate Ford PAS into their teaching and were also able to hear from leading San Antonio business leaders from sectors ranging from health care to manufacturing and engineering about the top skills they look for in their employees.
On December 3rd a group of 23 metro Detroit Ford PAS teachers spent the day learning about a variety of educational technologies to help teach the Ford PAS curriculum. The event was planned and coordinated by Sharon Chapple, Ford PAS Project Manager at the University of Michigan-Dearborn.

]]>Next, we did an activity from Media and Messages: Building a Foundation of Communication Skills (Module 2). Parents were put into teams and then given a poster board, markers and a ruler. We had a copy of the pages that asked them to come up with a slogan and logo for YAMA YAMA foods. After giving the parents a little background, they started the project. We had students who are familiar with the Ford PAS program help them get started. After 20 minutes, we asked them to come up in teams and present their projects.
