In this engaging and practical session, educators, teachers, and leaders will explore strategies to transition learning environments and opportunities from being primarily adult-led to child-led. This shift places students at the center of their learning journey, fostering independence, curiosity, and a love of learning.
Participants will: • Understand the principles and benefits of child-led learning, including its impact on engagement, creativity, and problem-solving skills. • Reflect on the balance between adult guidance and child autonomy in planning and delivering learning experiences. • Learn practical techniques for creating environments that encourage exploration, choice, and voice. • Explore ways to scaffold child-led activities to align with curriculum goals while honoring individual interests. • Discuss strategies for assessing and documenting learning in a child-led framework.
Through interactive discussions, case studies, and hands-on activities, attendees will gain actionable insights to gradually transform their practice. This session equips educators to empower students as active participants in their learning journey, setting the foundation for lifelong learning and success.
