Living Inside Of Stories, A talk by Margaret Boersma. Creative Education in Action. First available for streaming on January 19, 2021.
Modern learning must embed social and emotional learning (SEL) which includes empathy training, critical thinking, collaboration, equity, diversity and inclusion as these essential skills are critical for our modern world. We live in a world of constant change which includes outsourcing many tasks we previously employed workers to do locally. We must be pro-active in preparing our students to be creative and innovative through collaboration so they can make an impact in our modern world. < CLICK TO PLAY THE TRAILER >

Empower Yourself to Inspire Your Children!
Health Nexus invited me to speak to parents on “Setting Up a Positive Learning Environment at Home.” With the unexpected closure of schools, many parents working from home, out of work or being essential workers, parents may feel completely disempowered, like they have no control. As a teacher trainer in social and emotional learning (SEL), I speak about the many challenges and provide some suggestions.
Creative Education in Action enables both teachers and students to thrive. Combine SEL and whole-brain learning across the curriculum and transform education.
