SXSW EDU 2022

Equity Through Whole-Child Design and Development

Description:

We can design learning settings so that all young people thrive, especially those marginalized by systemic injustice. The science of learning and development points to how, by integrating practices that are attuned, responsive, and aligned with how children develop. We’ll explore an assets-based approach to measuring student well-being and hear about the implementation and continuous improvement of whole-child development and design at schools in our participatory action research network.
