  • Disruptive Thinking in Our Classrooms: Preparing Learners for Their Future

    The world has and continues to change in ways that are difficult to predict. Regardless of the forces at hand, educators play a pivotal role in preparing students for success now and in the future. The best way to do this is to create a disruptive thinking culture in our classrooms and schools that future-proofs learning for ALL kids!

  • Bringing Awe to Learning

    Awe is a huge component of life—it’s hardwired into our brains. When we experience the sensation of awe, we are consumed by wonder, relevancy, emotion, engagement, inspiration, and real-world connections. Awe is a driving force for learning that will not just benefit our students now but also well into their future. It is also a driving motivational force that inspires educators to not only do their best work but also find greater purpose. It's time for everyone to experience the joy and power of awe as a catalyst for personalized learning as a way to improve outcomes and educator contentment. During this keynote, Eric will share innovative, research-based practices that you can implement to bring back a sense of awe to learning and love for the amazing work educators do for students.
