ON LINE Via ZOOM-A Deep Dive into Contemporary Academics in a Reggio-inspired Program

Presented by Nicole Young and Patricia Hunter McGrath

“Learning and teaching should not stand on opposite banks and just watch the river flow by; instead, they should embark together on a journey down the water. Through an active, reciprocal exchange, teaching can strengthen learning how to learn.”
