What you are going to learn

A few more words about this course

Can’t we all just get along? We can - when we build intentional structures that support

productive discussion and collaboration grounded in treating each other as they wish to be

treated. Join us to try out, explore, practice, and apply co-creating community agreements, a

culturally responsive and restorative practice that gives voice to all learning community

members. Our session first engages educators as learners in an immersive experience, then

focuses on building a plan to bring community agreements home to engage with youth,

colleagues and other key community members. This Deeper Learning by Doing® experience

will energize CTE educators to move forward with new tools/strategies, artifacts of their

experience, personal action steps, contacts for follow-on coaching - and greater confidence with

building a foundation for meaningful collaboration.
