Angela Slate, MSIDT

With an undergraduate Advertising degree, I entered the corporate world as a marketing professional with specialties in graphic design and event planning. It was during one of these events that I discovered my love of working with children and decided to go back to school for my teaching credential.

​

With both a multiple- and single-subject teaching credential, I have a total of over 15 years of teaching K12 students under my belt. While holding titles such as Curriculum Specialist, Induction Coach, Department Head, Master Tech Teacher, and Testing Lead, I have had many opportunities to train other teachers in a wide variety of topics. These have included topics including, but not limited to, incorporating new technology, analyzing test data, effective teaching strategies, and matching lessons to objectives. 

​

This brought me to the third phase of my career in which I discovered my love of training teachers. This was confirmed and deepened through the Masters of Instructional Design program at CSU, Fullerton. I discovered that Instructional Design allows me to combine all 3 of my strongest skills: technology, design, and teaching.

 

After graduating from my Master's Program, I continued my education at the University of San Diego and obtained a Certificate in Professional Development Facilitation and Leadership for Educators.

My Process

I am knowledgeable in both the SAM and ADDIE models. If neither is requested, I will use ADDIE. I also practice inclusivity by incorporating the sub strategies of Inclusive ADDIE within the overall ADDIE process. Additionally, I use the 5 core questions of Designing for Diversity to guide equitable and inclusive instruction.
