As the concept of People Based Learning takes shape, we want to continue to share the examples that guide us, and opportunities that connect us. Thrilled to introduce the latest lab in our People Based Learning Lab series.
We continue with our theme: People Based Learning – Where might we start?
Not with answers 👉 with questions.
We are sharing our emerging findings and work around the country that aligns.
All gatherings are from 12-12:45pm EST.

Learning Lab #1: Questions To Connect 10/18 12 EST
How do we best draw out the stories of others? Join Vy Dao of MIT’s Cortico, to find out. Vy Dao is a sociologist and qualitative researcher whose work is rooted in telling and listening to stories. This session will cover MIT/Cortico research on the questions that bring out the most powerful, connected answers.
Asking meaningful questions is a key facet of People Based Learning.

Learning Lab #2: Qualities of a Good Role Model 11/1
What qualities do young people look for in a role model?
The benefits of young people being able to identify and emulate suitable role models is well established in current academic literature. Shelby Clark and Danny Mucinskas from The Good Project, a research initiative at Harvard University’s Project Zero, will discuss their recent research in partnership with a global teacher community of practice focused on exploring “good work” with adolescents. They will present findings about how students around the world described and identified their own role models and the qualities they attributed to them, with implications for educators and schools.
Role models play a unique and essential role in People Based Learning.
Members of School of Thought will have access to recordings of these sessions.
