HundrED WEBday Featuring Jamie Steckart, Head of Think Global School

The theme of the month for May 2019 is Preparing Youth For Today’s Globalized World. Throughout this month, we want to explore questions like, how do you broach the subject of sustainability in schools? Can students learn and collaborate globally? Are there ways of making students globally literate in an increasingly globalized world? Join Jamie Steckart, Head of Think Global School as he goes live on the HundrED Facebook Page to ask the key question- Are our schools designed in a way to take advantage of what we now know regarding intrinsic motivation, brain development, relationships, experiential learning and creating healthy adults?
