Save The Data
Saturday 13th June - 8 am to 12:30 pm
Brisbane Girls Grammar School
This conference will feature Dr Ron Ritchhart as keynote speaker, along with a wide variety of small group sessions facilitated by practising educators inspired by Project Zero ideas. Creating a new story of learning at school and in our classrooms begins with a safe environment that creates a sense of belonging and affords students agency in their learning. This is ongoing throughout the school year.
Dr Ron Ritchhart
Keynote Presenter
Dr Ritchhart will pose questions about the eight cultural forces, suitable teaching and research-based practices and how we create a sense of belonging in the classroom and nurture inclusivity. Workshop sessions will address one or more of the following throughlines:
- How can we nurture a culture of belonging and agency for teachers and students?
- How can teaching practices support students to feel confident and to thrive as learners?
- How might we help learners cultivate dispositions that support engagement with others, with ideas and in action?
