Listen to Webinar on Beaver’s Social Justice Curriculum

Posted on April 2, 2010

Beaver’s Robert Principe (Director of Educational Leadership for the Hiatt Center for Social Justice Education) will lead a webinar on the school’s social justice program on Thursday, April 8 from 8:00-9:00 PM (EDT). The webinar is free, and a recorded version will be available for those not able to listen and participate in the live discussion.

Mr. Principe will discuss how Beaver, building on its long-standing commitment to diversity and social action, has moved to significantly increase the integration of this skill-based global learning into the learning culture of every classroom. This effort is driven by a focus on “providing opportunities for authentic learning experiences beyond the traditional classroom” where students can apply their intelligence, creativity, critical social thinking, and technology to engage real world issues.

The webinar is based on what Mr. Principe presented at the AISNE professional development conference held at Beaver in December.
