Teacher Education That's More Like the Media Lab and Less Like Traffic School

Session 2

Gary Stager

Room 1182

This session will explore an educational model for pre and inservice teachers that nurtures creativity and grants agency while substantially raising expectations for teachers more than three decades since microcomputers first entered classrooms. Such intimate professional development should also influence the creation of productive learning contexts for children.
