Planning your Digital Toolbox Story: What Susan Korstanje learned
Case Studies
Reading the World workshops start January 13, 2027
Join us for this three-workshop series about reading to understand, to gather information and to get inspired.
Topics we will cover
In this three-workshop series we will explore approaches to teaching reading based on learners’ knowledge and experience of the world. We will look at resources that support different reasons for reading: to understand, to gather information and to get inspired.
In these workshops, you will:
- Expand your approach to teaching reading by experimenting with [strategies] in which learners are at the heart of an emerging curriculum.
- Discover reading resources with lesson plans for your learners.
- Explore resources at different levels, formats and on various topics.
- Look at how technology can engage learners into reading and can enhance and extend their learning.
What to expect
In 3 Zoom sessions (90 minutes each), you will:
- Get familiar with two approaches: Paulo Freire’s problem-posing approach and Gail Weinstein’s Learners’ Lives as Curriculum (LLC) approach.
- Explore resources so that you can leave with some new ideas, materials and tools.
- Be welcomed into a space where you can share your experience and your questions with your peers.
