Changing perspectives through K-8 microfinance with educator Debbie Burns


Listen Later

Educator Debbie Burns has taught PreK through Grade 6 for over 30 years. For the past six years she has leveraged her passion for service by advocating the importance of service learning in educating active global citizens by seeking to instill a servant heart within her students. She agrees wholeheartedly with Aristotle that ”educating the mind without educating the heart, is no education at all.” In this podcast Debbie will share how that she and her colleagues teamed up with administration and parents to transform a grade 3 and 4 economics unit from "me" to "we" using the One Hen Project to teach the academic principles of financial literacy while also teaching to the heart. This podcast is one of ten in the HowTo@ConcordiaShanghai series. For information on how to contract the Limitless platform to benefit your organization, contact Ally today.]
