Keynote: Stretching Your Learning Edges: Being Your Best Collaborative Self
Saturday November 9, 2024 8:30am - 9:45am JST
Collaboration is one of the most frequently used words in education and, in some ways, the least taught. Yet, our ability to collaborate and our willingness to engage respectfully with one another matters for the health of the school and the collective well-being of all within it. How do we stretch ourselves at our learning edges to become our best adult selves at school? How do we communicate well with one another in service of our students? Based on Jennifer Abrams’ new book, Stretching Your Learning Edges: Growing (Up) at Work, this keynote will explore 5 ideas around which every educator develop his or herself to become an even better value-add to their grade level, department, and the school as a whole.
