Today, Maria talks with Trevor Soponis, Founder and Chief Learning Officer at The Sustainable Learning Programs. This episode is for students, teachers, and parents interested in transforming our schools to become places where students learn by working on projects that contribute to solving the biggest issues facing our planet. Trevor shares how he partners with teachers, schools, and districts to design innovative project-based learning experiences that allow students to make a meaningful impact on people, communities and society. We dive into two Sustainable Projects - Project Ocean Harvest and Project Student Voice - and together, we unpack how through collaboration, connection and contribution, students learn, build skills, solve real-life problems, and create impactful work. We also talk about how project-based learning experiences enable teachers to become the coaches, facilitators and supporters that we want them to be so they can create the next generation of lifelong learners. Tune in to learn from a leader who wants to change the fundamental learning experience for every learner in the world where each one of them has the authority and autonomy to direct their learning journey.
