ASCD 2016 Global Institute: Ensuring Educational Equity for Each Child

We believe, as you do, that each child deserves to be healthy, safe, engaged, supported, and challenged. We hope you’ll join us for a truly unique and interactive educational experience led by experts and focused on global engagement, the whole child, and equity and education.

Overview

This two-part, three-day event takes place on Hawaii’s Big Island, December 12–14, 2016.

On Day 1, you’ll hear from global leaders, engage in dialogue with peers and experts, and plan for the future. On Days 2 and 3, you’ll learn strategies to pursue equity and close instructional and achievement gaps in your school or district.

Together with leading educators, you’ll spend three days exploring the global implications of a whole child approach to education.
