BUILDING CAPACITY AND SUSTAINING LEADERS
Multi-day,
interactive workshops that build from the learner's knowledge about schools and
education to develop deepened, sophisticated, practical and effective responses
to the challenges schools face today. We focus on "pulling the curtain
back" on education, exposing the wizard behind it all, and
empowering learners to create change in their own education, and that of future
generations.
FOCUS AREAS
Learning About Learning
Explore personal assumptions, identify
learning styles, state individual and community learning goals, and
assess popular assumptions about education.
The Education System
Examine the role of government education in society by recognizing
individual positions and cultural interpretations of school.
School Reform
Analyze issues, history, trends, and possibilities in schools,
including political, economic, and social influences on change.
Meaningful Student Involvement
Discuss roots of student voice, purpose
of student involvement, roles for students as partners, and
student/adult partnerships.
Planning Action in Schools
Determine issues, activities, tools, and
courses of action students can take to positively impact school.
