Webinar “The Moments Are More Important Than the Seconds: Creating ProSocial Learning Experiences”

Published: March 20, 2023; Aithor: Julia Sonrisa

When: March 27, 2023

Students, teachers, and principals are constantly inundated with new curricula, strategies, and priorities. These shifting elements of the education industry coupled with increasing politicization, community pressure, and professional demands can lead to tense, unproductive, and often AntiSocial learning experiences.

In order to move towards ProSocial experiences for staff and for students, we must consider how to make the most of our moments. In this edLeader Panel, attendees will connect student beliefs to behaviors and outcomes, strategize around the creation of meaningful moments, and hear from a set of industry experts about the impact of simple tools that help teachers consistently use individual moments to create ProSocial Learning Experiences.

This edLeader Panel will be of interest to middle and high school teachers, librarians, school and district leaders, and those involved with counseling, student services, and SEL departments. There will be time for questions at the end of the presentation.
