***To ensure an engaging and productive learning experience, attendance will be capped at 100 people. The Zoom link will be available on this page 5 minutes before the session start time. Please note, clicking the “Register” button does NOT guarantee access, as attendees will be let in from the waiting room on a first come, first served basis.*** How do we focus on authenticity to create brave learning environments that support all students? What does it take to invite students’ full authentic selves into learning? What does it take for educators to bring their full authentic self to their work? In this hands-on workshop, we will use creativity exercises and guided reflection to dig into the role of authenticity in education and demonstrate our authenticity-based SEL framework for creating culturally-responsive practices.
