Plenary AM - Innovation in the Learning Landscape

9:15 AM - 10:00 AM

Presidential Room 2


Description: As educators, how can we identify and foster the key tenants of innovation? If we focus on producing innovators, not subject matter experts, how might we shift our teaching approach? What lessons can we learn from real world leaders who possess the traits of risk-taking, curiosity, and creativity? This session provides practical examples of how to incorporate questioning, experimentation, observation, association, and sharing into our curriculums. Join us as we provide and compare examples.
