Teachers from bilingual schools in Argentina and the region
What are great learners, and how do we develop them collectively? This one day workshop will explore the key areas of great learning, including metacognition, memory, and deeper learning techniques for the classroom. How can we help children become more independent, more curious, and more resilient? How can they remember more of what they are taught? Teachers will walk away with lots of practical activities and a deeper understanding of what great learning is and how to achieve it in their context.
