CASLT Event Description
Technology and digital resources are important in FSL, but they won’t impact student engagement and achievement on their own. In this webinar we will explore how to shift educator mindsets about what teaching for the 21st century looks and sounds like and how to create inclusive learning experiences for students in FSL. We will learn how this shift changes the role of the classroom teacher from “master teacher” to “master learner.” In both digital and in-class learning environments, the “master learner” curates learning experiences that centre student voice, choice, and lived experience in the process of learning.
