This session will focus on practical strategies to support teachers in the use and refinement of facilitation skills so that classrooms are safe, connected learning communities where students lead the talking, thinking, interaction and learning! The session begins with a consideration of the core principles of a learning community where students think deeply and learn with and from one another. Then participants are guided through a learning experience, where facilitation techniques are demonstrated. Participants explore practical strategies and facilitation techniques that support the development of a strong and safe classroom community where students think critically and learn from one another.
