Target Audience: Educators, administrators, special educators, mental health professionals, nurses, school counselors and psychologists, parents and anyone interested in re-envisioning educational systems.



This is the first live webinar in a series of four, where Dr. Joelle van Lent and Dr. Gillian Boudreau will help navigate the uncharted waters of a COVID-19 educational reality. Joelle and Gillian will examine how to find the courage, capacity, and tools to build modern, sustainable, collaborative systems that can work better than business as usual, informed by the needs of the moment. They will explore creative noncompliance - a process of following the principles governing best practices in education, while leaving room for educator and student voices in determining the implementation of these principles.

Webinar #1: How to Re-Envision Student Motivation and Engagement

Joelle and Gillian discuss updated research on how to help students find the interest and capacity for new learning, as well as navigate the unique demands of and transitions between in-person and distance learning. Particular attention will be given to the impact of stress on executive functioning as we navigate an uncertain start to the school year.
