Think Big Series on the Mainstage
Spend lunch learning and laughing with two powerhouse speakers! These 15-minute talks will be followed by a Q&A moderated by ISTE + ASCD program committee's own Craig Martin.
In today's classrooms, fostering student agency is paramount. Join us to explore three essential keys: belonging, connection, and confidence. We'll dive into how creating a space where every student feels they belong transforms the learning environment, enabling learners to take risks and own their education. You’ll discover practical strategies for building meaningful connections by understanding and valuing student culture, unlocking relational capital for effective teaching. Finally, we'll address the critical role of cultivating confidence by guiding students through achievable challenges, demonstrating their ability to succeed, and empowering them to realize their potential. Learn how to shift from expectation to empowerment, and witness the transformative power of student agency in your classroom.
