You’ll join DE Foundations sessions based on your experience level and will build off these sessions into day 2 – think like a “mini-workshop”! We’ll seed the entire day with multiple breakouts to connect with fellow STARs and community-led presentations, the cornerstone of DENSI, will round out the day!
Day 2 July 19th: Building on the buzz of our first day, we’ll start by exploring DE’s learning platform and our Social Impact programs. We’ll expand on the DE Foundations and your learnings from day 1, and you’ll also have another opportunity to hear from a fellow Community member to see how they’re using DE in their school. Day 2 will also consist of multiple breakouts and a fun hands-on activity! We’ll close the day together, sharing our best practices and ideas for how we head into the next school year maximizing the use of DE.
