A Special Opportunity for Lutheran Educators
Inspire Citizens’ Empathy to Impact Approach: A PreK-12 curriculum enhancing approach to level up global citizenship, reciprocal service learning, and education for sustainable development.
About this two-day workshop:
The Inspire Citizens Empathy to Impact approach follows the Care- Aware- Able- Impact framework. This is a service learning cycle, an enhanced inquiry cycle, and project-based learning cycle, and a method of enhancing any curriculum approach. Participants will develop student empathy by engaging with the Sustainable Development Goals, Social Justice Standards, Well-being indicators, and more.
Participants will look for opportunities to enhance action through Inspire Citizens' Action menu and community assets mapping, participants will explore tools for authentic investigation to allow students to become more deeply aware of the issues that they care about, and all will be integrated into curricular outcomes to enhance existing curriculum for global citizenship, service, and action for sustainability.
Educators will walk away with a plan to engage learners ready to go.
