Due to the current Covid 19 crisis, all Teacher Talks will be held outdoors or online over Zoom.
Teacher Talks will occur every second Friday of the month. These sessions are based on topics submitted by branch members.
The educational term for this is called a "Community of Practice". The definition is, "A community of practice is a group of people who share a concern or a passion for something they do, and learn how to do it better as they interact regularly. This definition reflections the fundamentally social nature of human learning" (Wenger-Trayner).
A reminder that all our gatherings are scent free (please refrain from wearing scented body products, or perfume).
All sessions are open to the non-Regina Branch Members.
BYOB - Please bring your own beverage (coffee, tea, water, etc).
RSVP: If you are planning on attending feel free to RSVP.
As we start a new year of Teacher Talks, the slate is open for topics. If you have a topic you would like discussed, feel free to include it in the list on the Google Doc.
