Description

The podcasts, video interviews, and links capture the presentations and excitement around the speakers and educators participating in the Engaging the Learner series organized by Surrey Schools from 2011-2014. Each session was attended by approximately 280 educators from the Surrey School District (SD36) as part of an ongoing initiative to inspire innovation in teaching and learning. We are releasing the presentations in an effort to keep the conversation moving. Please follow and contribute using the #sd36learn hashtag on Twitter.
