How to Learn, Lead, and Live with a Limitless Approach
​​
​​​Listen to and ask questions of a distinguished and engaging speaker Dr. Jo Boaler, a Professor at the Stanford University Graduate School of Education (Mathematics) a Stanford researcher, and leading expert in the field of mathematics education. As a prolific author of 19 books and numerous research articles, she will share the focus of her book Limitless Mind: Learn, Lead, and Live Without Barriers.
Recent years have seen an explosion of scientific evidence showing that there is a different way to learn, lead and live, available to us all. When people take a limitless approach – in learning and in life – different pathways open up, leading to higher, more equitable and more enjoyable achievement.
In this session we will consider what this different approach is, thinking about the ways we can teach students to increase equity, engagement, and achievement, and the ways we can all become limitless. What are ways that our League can become limitless?
