Professional Development Workshops
Throughout the past number of years, the Lola Stein Institute, along with educators from The Toronto Heschel School, have developed professional workshops that can be facilitated for interested groups. The goal of these workshops overall is to share the Lola Stein Institute's accumulated knowledge in integrative education with educators world-wide and to show how these unique methods for integrative study, thinking skills and learning through the arts can be universally applied to benefit students at all schools.
Targeted to educators interested in a broader vision of education, the professional development workshops are based on the premise that teachers need to be nurtured as they are the most important lever of change. The strategy uses the teacher's own enthusiasm for learning as motivation to lead the students to discovery. The workshops re-ignite the teacher's own passion for learning. Each workshop focuses on a generative topic and provides training on creative methodologies for teaching the topic. Through hands-on activities, participants in the workshop will explore the theories behind the new methodologies and walk away with models to inspire their own practice.
