Are you looking for strategies to help secondary students motivate, persevere, communicate, and collaborate in the academic setting? In this webinar, Maureen Chapman and James Simons present a framework from their book, Leaders of the Class, to help educators teach (and develop in themselves) the social-emotional skills of leadership. The authors outline four foundational leadership conditions and practices, present a sequence of leadership units that pair with one’s academic content, and introduce replicable routines to ensure every learner builds the skills to motivate, persevere, communicate, and collaborate in the classroom.
In this session, you will…
-
Internalize a framework for thinking about, developing, and teaching the social and emotional skills of leadership in a way that is developmentally appropriate for the secondary classroom
-
Unpack the classroom conditions required for students to develop leadership competencies
-
Practice simple strategies and routines to support student motivation, perseverance, communication, and collaboration when engaging in academic work
