Storyboarding! How to Transform Your Curriculum into an Engaging Learning Journey
How can we shift from a piecemeal approach to curriculum coverage to one that is deliberately is written for my students of all backgrounds and abilities? How can we craft an engaging storyboard that will hook my learners’ imagination? Join us as we walk through our approach to designing a storyboard to be used directly with your students as partners on their learning journey. By deliberately shifting curriculum composition to a narrative approach with crystal clear connections across the school year, student-accessible language and visual imagery, you not only increase the depth of your students’ understanding but hook their imaginations! This approach is versatile, suitable for all levels, from K-12 to post-secondary and professional development. Whether you're revamping an existing curriculum or starting from scratch with a fresh concept, our lively and practical session will equip you with valuable tools and school examples.
