About the talk

With every challenging time, there comes a moment that shows signs of opportunity for real renewal and rejuvenation when it comes to how we imagine and practice this thing we call school.

In this keynote talk from The Inquiry Educators Summit 2021, author and co-founder of The Big Questions Institute, Will Richardson, takes a look back at the powerful learning journey that we’ve all been on, bringing coherence to the deep learning you’ve already done, and clarifies the emerging story of school and the larger narrative of education. Explore how those leading from the edge of disruption are designing and creating new experiences for learning with children that are more relevant, equitable, and just, and how these new practices map more closely to the needs of students (and teachers) in a no-normal world and increasingly uncertain future.

Key highlights you don’t want to miss

How a familiar model of inquiry can support educators to draw on data-informed conclusions
The many ways you can connect with and learn from teachers, students and parents in the community
Language cues and actionable methods to build up towards an inclusive learning environment
