20 SES 08 A, Innovations in Education - What Counts?
Research Workshop
Contribution
"What do our children need to thrive in the world they will inherit? A world we cannot imagine?" This workshop uses group dynamics and play to investigate current provocative research that may bear on our own personal answers to this question.
Participants will be invited to:
- Express what they wish to improve in the education/ or systems in which they support students.
- Share innovations
- Explore synopsis of current provocative research
- Discuss local contextual issues
- Decide for themselves what they will do next.
The goal of this workshop is for everyone to take away at least one solid, research based new idea/innovation for their own education practice.
