Owlcast 40 - Youth-to-Youth Program - with Julia Tokatlidou & Mark McGowan
On October 7, 2022, The ACS Athens Dean of Academics, Julia Tokatlidou, together with the IB and AP programs Director, Mark McGowan, gave a presentation at the International Baccalaureate (IB) Global conference on the ACS Athens Youth-to-Youth Educational and Social Integration program. Their presentation title was, “A Student-to-Student Teaching Approach to Inclusivity and Differentiation” as they highlighted the innovation of the Youth-to-Youth program, especially the student-to-student approach where our students assist in the teaching of English and Greek languages, computers and other subjects to unaccompanied refugee minors.
Over 100 educators from schools around the world learned how the ACS Athens model of a student-to-student approach to learning could be applied to a variety of contexts and classes, and the response was one of overwhelming enthusiasm, leaving many with ideas of how to start similar programs or practices at their schools. Both Ms. Tokatlidou and Mr. McGowan have talked about the excitement of their discussions, the new relationships that were created, and the new ideas acquired that can enhance the education of our students.
