Changemaker Camp: Leading with Equity & Hope

equityeducationJoin this three-part learning opportunity for teachers, school administrators, and other adults looking to better support diversity, equity, and inclusion for young people.

We’ll apply a Changemaker lens to gain confidence with difficult conversations and practice specific activities to increase cultural inclusion in our schools–with students, among colleagues, and interfacing with our community.

Leading with Equity & Hope will be facilitated by Changemaker Trainer, Angele Goss. Angele is an expert consultant and trainer on diversity, equity, and inclusion work. She is a passionate and sensitive presenter on cultural competency and engagement for many community organizations.

Angele has been an educator for 16 years, working with underrepresented K-12 students on college and career readiness. She has an incredible imagination, loves young people, has a not-so-secret obsession with organizational systems and planners, and is a lovely and warm person.

Changemaker Camp: Infusing Changemaking into Remote Learning

Educators–and in particular, teachers: We know you are working hard every day to spark the interest and attention of your students, while checking off progress toward curriculum standards. You are carefully gauging student understanding at the same time you are observing their well-being. And still, there are many times when you feel that solid connection with students just isn’t there.

If this description resonates for you, then our second Changemaker Camp offering of the year might be just want you need to power through the spring semester!

Changemaker Camp: Parent-Teacher Well-Being

COVID has drastically changed what learning looks like and how relationships between school and home are shaped. It has also significantly–and often negatively–affected our individual health.

Join Vipin Thekk and Changemaker friends during this third installment of Changemaker Camps–like our other Camps, this too has three parts with an optional fourth session for feedback and reflection. Created in partnership with the PBS television network and Ashoka, this Changemaker Camp is intended to forge stronger connection between teachers and educators at school (that’s you!) and teachers at home–parents.
