From Seeds to Systems: Nurturing Coherence in Schools and Districts (Part 1 of 2) LIMITED
Tuesday July 15, 2025 10:30am - 12:00pm EDT
In this session school and district leaders will explore the notion that building coherence is like tending a garden; it requires relentless focus and constant vigilance. Participants will first examine their vision through a Photography Scavenger Hunt. This activity is designed to help you ensure you have a clear, shared understanding of your vision and where elements of your vision already exist within your system. Then leaders will play The Coherence Game; an activity we have created to help system leaders see where in their own system they have strong coherence and where coherence needs to be built.

While individuals are very welcome, this session is a great opportunity for teams to work together on gathering clarity around your vision and how to move it forward.

TIME TRAVEL: Tools for life, Education, and the Planet hmmmmkay!
Wednesday July 16, 2025 10:45am - 11:45am EDT
In this unprecedented time, education must shift to prepare young people for jobs that do not yet exist, & technologies that have not yet been invented. There are no memorization tests for the most pivotal questions of our time, such as how do we build just, equitable futures? This interactive workshop provides methods, including an innovative game, that utilizes time travel to develop the crucial skills of imagination, collaboration, critical thinking, curiosity, empathy & more - and how to apply them to self, class, PBL, and beyond. This game was designed to be youth-led, and an antithesis to the alarming levels of loneliness and hopelessness, and to the great rewiring of childhood and adolescent brains from social media and shifting societal norms. It's ALSO for you too! There’s no way this doesn't apply to you and all of us building a just equitable world.
