Opportunity for educators
Fostering Belonging Through Simple Dialogue Practices
Educators have a unique learning opportunity to understand the importance of dialogue in their learners' lives through an online webinar titled Fostering Belonging Through Simple Dialogue Practices.
In this practical webinar, educators will explore what school belonging means, why it matters and how it influences students' participation and learning. The session will then bring the concept into practice through simple dialogue activities that can be adapted to different classroom contexts.
These activities can help educators create safe and brave spaces where students can share their perspectives, connect with others and participate meaningfully.
