Meaningful Student Engagement through Hands-on Learning and Mentors is a four-part webinar series offered through Infosys Foundation USA’s Pathfinders Online Institute, covering:
The foundations of experiential learning, including maker-centered learning
Leveraging career mentors from your community to build Social Emotional Learning
Developing meaningful student work products and sharing remote learning tools
Technology that can support your pedagogical practices
This series will help frontline educators, either new to experiential and maker-centered learning, or seasoned educators continue to develop their skills and enhance their best practices. While the series will have practical applications for multiple grade levels, our primary focus will be on 5th–8th grade educators.
In the second webinar, Engaging Community in Deeper Student Learning, we’ll discuss how career mentors from communities ground student learning in real world problems and challenges, while also providing a strong foundation for how to develop actionable solutions. In this session we’ll hear directly from mentors and educators about how to incorporate industry professionals in your hybrid or remote learning classrooms.
