September 17th, 12pm (EST): Leading Change: Heart, Head, Hands -- Santiago Rincón Gallardo
The recent publication of Gallardo’s Leading Change: Heart, Head, Hands will be reviewed where he will explore the crossroads we face in education: domination and control, focusing on systems built on compliance, efficiency, and standardization that reinforce hierarchies of power; and solidarity and care, a vision of education that nurtures creativity, agency, and human connection.

February 18th, 6:30 am (EST): Formation for Mission: Examining the Impact of Wellsprings-- William Sultmann, Australian Catholic University
Wellsprings was developed as a body of evaluative surveys, assessing the impact of formation for mission activities for Catholic school staff. The metaphor, Wellsprings, brings together the experience of ministry with the sacred mission of the school within the life of the Church in harmony with the Gospel. Three core instruments: Mission Practice (Pre); Mission Learning; and Mission Practice (Post) constitute the generic formation measures in support of advancing mission in ways that integrate faith with personal, relational, professional and school community practices. Applied within a digital platform the instruments facilitate personal formation planning, identification of group trends, and support of formators to respond to individual and contextual factors.
