  6. College Access Time CAT stands for College Access Time, which is another name for advisory. CAT may go by different names in different schools (e.g., MAP or Advisory), but it is a common element of JCPS’ efforts to improve high schools. Increased College Access: Small group meetings (CAT) that support strong relationships with an adult who is “on my case and on my side;” positive peer relationships around common career interests; and college readiness. 2012 Alliance Institute for a College-Going Culture

  8. Mingle, Mingle – Huddle, Huddle Purpose: This activity is to spark conversations between colleagues about any subject the facilitator chooses. It could be used for a controversial subject or a new initiative, this works for just about anything. It is particularly helpful in large groups of people who do not know each other.  Process: • Have the group stand up and mingle: greeting each other with names and roles much like at a party. • The facilitator then calls out to huddle and a number representing group size. For example, “Huddle, 4”.   • Pose a question or a statement to the group. Displaying on a power point slide may help in larger group. • Give them a certain time period to discuss their answers (be sure to include enough time for all group members to participate) • Have groups report something from their discussion 2012 Alliance Institute for a College-Going Culture
