IB leaders, educators, students and parents thinking about the impact of COVID-19 on the climate of education and the future of work (which has already been rapidly changing) are invited to this webinar.
We have some very insightful voices on the panel, including:
Erica Muhl (University of Southern California, Founding Dean of the Jimmy Lovine and Andre Young Academy of Art, Technology, and Business Innovation),
Harry Beard (DP Alum, Entrepreneur, and co-founder of Prospect 100),
Chis Baker-Ravio (Champlin High School, MNCP Coordinator and DP Lang and Lit Teacher), and
Amaya (a current CP student from Champlin High School, MN).
Facing the challenges of a post-COVID world will require deliberate effort to cultivate the competencies that students need to respond to the ever-changing workplace. However, many career and technical education (CTE) programs fall short because they emphasize what to learn in the workplace, and not how to learn, when the skills of today may not be guaranteed in the jobs of tomorrow. In this webinar, learn how passion-driven career education impacts traditional forms of schooling and the world of work.
This topic transcends school contexts to look at the big picture: to broaden our thinking about ways we can expand participation in rigourous learning so students learn to develop new skills for themselves, to find ways to integrate their passions into their learning to become their best and most successful selves, the how to develop the kind of thinkers we need to nurture in any pathway or coursework, we offer them. At the heart are the authentic values, principles, practices, and experiences the International Baccalaureate promotes in all programmes, especially in context of the Career-related Programme and the Diploma Programme.
Feel free to use this information to share or advertise the opportunity anyway you want to with school and system leadership, parents, students, and colleagues.
Regards,
Phil
