EduCon 2.8

The school mission drives in ways direct and subtle the stories that we tell within and beyond our school communities. We will leverage the collective wisdom of the participants in the workshop to explore current successes and challenges in realizing the promise embedded in each of our school’s missions. We’ll engage in active learning together using a design thinking approach as we ask "How might we" and "What if" questions to uncover new possibilities for better addressing emerging Educon themes in our schools and classrooms. Participants will receive focused feedback on a pressing issue that they identify and will give feedback to other participants about challenges that they are facing in their schools. Participants will leave with an actionable plan to address their mission-focused challenge. We hope that our shared thinking will create the beginnings of a professional learning community that can continue beyond the workshop conversation.
