Practical Ethics Activities for the Classroom

 

How can you implement an already full agenda with ethics activities? How can you promote academic integrity into a fully packed curriculum? Teachers will share how they have met the challenge. Designed for participant input and interaction.

Streamlining C3 Content

 

Classroom curricula are already packed, and the demands on teachers' time precludes them from developing and including ethics, safety, and security units in their classroom.  How can we inject these topics into the classroom? The session will share how to combine available C3 content into existing curricula and lessons. Classroom examples will be shared.
