SXSW EDU 2024
Can Young People Solve the Post-Pandemic Learning Equation?
Description:
As education leaders envision the future of post-pandemic learning, let's position young people as expert designers of solutions to issues they've recently faced in school! Representative voices from reDesign's Youth Advisory Council, the Untextbooked project at the History co:Lab, and Big Thoughts will model youth-driven approaches to addressing current challenges, like examining “positive deviants” from students' pandemic learning experiences and creating prototypes for scaling up those promising outcomes. Our panel will highlight the powerful lenses students bring to school transformation.
