SUMMARY:Teaching Israel: Where to Find the Best Sources
DESCRIPTION:Registration is closed. \nTamara Rebick\, Scholar in Residence and Founder and Chief Experience Officer (CXO) of CORIPHERY Holistic Consulting Solutions\, will facilitate an in depth conversation for educational directors. We’ll address concerns such as not having enough time to teach the aspirational Israel – things we wish they could truly understand and experience and constantly defaulting to what we “need to teach.” Rebick will guide us through the newest tools and resources that can be used in a less formal learning setting\, and sharing them in way so students can learn what sources to trust when exploring on their own.
