The largest study in educational research history demonstrates that moving harms learning. This finding is incomplete. Ota’s work explores the vast potential for growth in a life moving amongst cultures, and how we can harness it for our students and ourselves.
In Session 2 of the day, Ota examines how the psychological challenges described in his first presentation can only be tackled at the community level. He presents a framework for building comprehensive “Transitions Teams” at international schools. This practical workshop will help you assess your school’s current level of transitions services, interact with professionals at similar schools, and identify realistic goals for moving a resilient Transition Team at your school forward.
