SPOTLIGHT SPEAKER: The Risk of Trying (Grades K-12)
FULL

Limited Capacity full

What if students who don't try aren't unmotivated, they're just calculating risk?

Every time a student raises their hand or turns in work they care about, they're taking a risk. For many, that risk doesn't feel worth it. 

This session flips how we think about "apathy" and shows what's rally going on beneath the surface. Through real stories and practical strategies, educators will learn how to make effort feel safe, valued, and worth it.

Come join a rich discussion on the differences in schools teachers grew up in and the schools students are growing up in.  This is not a contrast of what is wrong with schools, but instead a chance to understand one another's worlds.  There were a lot of things right with schools from years ago and there are a lot of things right today ... let's join together to bridge the gap.
