We are so pleased to share that, following the success of this year’s event in Brazil, we will be holding our next Global.Learn.Connect conference in the Netherlands on 20-21 March 2025!
The two-day event will bring together school leaders and educators for engaging keynote presentations and a diverse range of teacher-led workshops; providing insights into their practices and experiences. This will be an invaluable opportunity to connect with both regional and global school communities.
THE LEARNING EFFECT: Play-Paradox-Passion: how structure and framework empower innovation and spontaneity
In a world of rapid change and uncertainties, adaptability, and innovation are paramount. In education there is a fascinating intersection: the point where structure meets spontaneity, framework enables freedom and careful design is a catalyst for creativity. Throughout this conference we will explore this powerful convergence, examining how thoughtful integration of play, paradox, and passion can create transformative learning experiences.
Learning Streams:
The Power of Play (learning through play, the role of play in cognitive development, playful learning environments, playful assessment for all ages)
Paradox Principles (how constraints enable creativity, structured freedom in learning environments, the power of productive tension)
Passion Pathways (emotional engagement in learning, building passionate learning communities)
During the two days we invite you to join for inspiring Keynote presentations and workshops from International Speakers, a diverse range of teacher-led workshops, providing insights into their practices and experiences. See, hear and experience international education in action. The first day will wrap up with a drinks reception at The Radission offering a chance to unwind and connect with fellow participants.
