Workshop Overview
The workshop aims to cultivate personal leadership skills in educators. Participants will develop the ability to identify and manage various factors that can influence their teaching, including personal factors such as professional identity, system challenges such as policies and procedures, and the use of technology.
In addition, the workshop aims to help teachers become 21st century artists, who can define their own voice and vision while teaching, and teach proactively rather than reactively. By the end of the workshop, teachers will have gained practical skills and knowledge to enhance their teaching ability and effectiveness.
