School Leaders
In an age of distraction, we need to look at learning consistently through the lens of meaningful and relevant practices. Merely “eliminating” distractions will not solve our engagement problem. If we want to teach the whole child, we'll have to do so in ways that tap into their interests and needs. In this talk, we'll look at new research from the last three years and practical strategies to support a meaningful and relevant focus like never before.
