The Student-Centered Shift: Empowered International Schools and Classrooms Through Project-Based Learning

Co-Creating a Public Exhibition of Student Work w/ Alison Yang


Listen Later

How do you make student work public? 

That's a scary proposition for many of us as educators.

But what if it's not for us to decide? 

What if we turned over control of the whole process to our students? 

Letting them choose the work, the medium, the format, the audience, and the script. What would happen then?

In this episode, I sit down with MYP Coordinator and student empowerer Alison Yang to learn more about how to curate public exhibitions, and how to:

  • Exhibit student work seamlessly in in-person AND remote environments 
  • Help typically shy students come to life
  • Empower students to own the process while we gently guide in the background
  • Get kids excited to share their learning
  • Manage the project process using tech tools so easy, a caveman could do it
