Presentations

Too often, dominant groups justify their privilege and power in international schools through stories. They tell myths, fictions, and lies of non-racism. They seek to explain why the status quo exists and tell stories defining reality as they see fit. But such stories are at odds with the way many People of Color experience international schools. This keynote shares counter-stories or a counter reality that gives insight into the experiences of one Black international educator.

While most of us prefer to learn in person, this workshop will highlight the many affordances of going remote. From breaking free of scheduling constraints and giving students more agency over their learning, to creating a sense of psychological safety with learners from different parts of the world, we will highlight what we have learned over the last three years by moving the Innovation Academy from the classrooms at the American School in Lima, Peru to Zoom with schools around the world.

This presentation helps all educators and aspiring leaders harness their leadership and performance potential by strengthening the relationship they have with themselves.

In the Studio approach, teachers pick a question about their students and then adjust a colleague's lesson plan to test out new teaching ideas.

Join us for an enlightening session that promotes a deeper appreciation for the interconnectedness of knowledge, ultimately preparing students for a more holistic educational experience.
