A Deep-Dive Into Learner-Centered Education

I was delighted to join a group of deep thinkers for an in-depth panel discussion about leaner-centered education. Hosted by Julie Mountcastle of the Slate School, this conversation is rich and engaging. You’ll hear about the importance of cherishing children’s wonder, offering students choice, encouraging playful and engaging math learning, and so much more. I learned so much from my fellow panelists!

If you enjoy this video, I highly recommend checking out more of this school’s Idea Lab virtual panel discussions!
