About the Global Gatherings 

Join us for a full day packed with a mix of educator development experiences! We will explore Purpose Learning as a framework for the future of learning. Schools in the past have focused on thinking. Schools in the future will focus on learning as thinking, feeling, and doing all at the same time so that students can explore lives of purpose. This conference begins with a workshop that allows educators to explore and clarify their own purpose, so they can coach students to do the same. Following lunch, attendees can choose between a series of hourlong Explore sessions, where teachers from around LA share their work to bring greater purpose to learning. The 90-minute Deep Dive Workshops at the end of the day allow educators to choose between a more in-depth study of a particular area of Purpose Learning, such as advisory programs, community-based learning, etc. The conference closes with a networking session and cocktails.
