Teaching Ideas with Visual Thinking
A deep dive, hands-on workshop into using visual thinking to teach. Visual thinking is not about drawing. It's about learning to see, understand, and simplify complex ideas and communicate them in a meaningful way through visuals. In this workshop, we'll dive into the anatomy of a visual, how to break up an idea into something that you can visualize, and introduce how to play with timeless formats to start practicing making your own visuals to translate your ideas.

Teaching for All with Less: Bold Moves in Inclusive Practice
Traditional differentiation is dead. Every child can grow--if given the chance. But too many neurodivergent students disengage when teachers lack the tools to adapt. With limited budgets and rising classroom complexity, we need a shift: inclusive education must become the standard, not the specialist's job. This session challenges old models and showcases bold, realistic ways to embed adaptive teaching, reward innovation, and empower every educator--without asking for more time or money, just better thinking.

In Search of Hope: Teaching Climate Emotions Through Story
Climate change impacts students not just physically, but emotionally as well. This session introduces the H.O.P.E. Framework (Healing Opportunities for Processing Eco-Grief), a practical, story-based approach for helping teachers and students recognize and respond to climate emotions. Rooted in hope theory and literature, the framework offers tools to spark meaningful conversations and build emotional resilience. Participants will explore current research, hear from educators using the approach, and leave with ready-to-use resources for emotionally responsive climate education.

Hsu Untied: Beyond Numbers: Decision-Making in the Math Classroom
Join a live podcast recording that explores the dynamic relationship between math and decision-making. Our guests will examine how math instruction can nurture decision-making skills such as probabilistic thinking and numeracy, and how applying decision-making contexts can lead to new math structures that feel more meaningful and relevant. Through practical examples, the discussion will show how integrating these approaches helps students apply mathematical reasoning to real-world choices and develop lasting habits of thoughtful, evidence-based analysis.
