Winterfest 2017: Getting Out of the Way

How can we make our time in learning environments truly matter - for our students and for ourselves? Answers can be surprising.  Experiential learning often involves ‘getting out of the way’ of the learning. It requires a change in the way we see ourselves as educators that some refer to as a shift from ‘sage-on-the stage to guide-on-the-side’. But how do we make that shift? And what happens in our classrooms and in ourselves when we do so? This session invites you to reflect on these questions to unearth the core principles underlying the teaching and learning experiences that matter most to us.
