| Do you feel equipped with instructional tools ready at your fingertips to pivot and adapt to our constantly changing environments? Let’s face it; the pandemic has forced us to revisit and adjust the way we learn and teach. Gone are the years when we had to convince ourselves and our colleagues of the importance of hands-on learning in the classroom and how to be responsive to the demanding needs of our learners. In a series of three 2-3 hour workshops, Misty, author of Pop Up Studio, will share flexible frameworks to engage your inquirers in thinking creatively, critically, and conceptually, on-the-spot, using your surrounding materials. Being a pedagogical artist has never been more important or more fun! How might we uphold the rights of young people to engage in artful and spontaneous inquiry and still coach towards excellence? Join Misty on a cyclical journey to enact a marveling mindset to power-up your learning designs and conversations. POWR coaching (Prepare→Observe→Wonder→Respond) centres on human connection and subject expertise for those participating in improvisational teaching such as student-driven inquiry or project-based learning. This two-hour workshop walks you through the aspects of POWR to experience joyful inquiry while guiding students towards disciplinary proficiencies. |
