Coming in August

Coming in August

In this webinar, Dr John Milne will discuss how reading not only improves wellbeing directly — through the joy of stories and the connections they create — but also indirectly, by building the social cohesion and shared experiences that communities thrive on. He will also share insights into his own research on reader identity, and explore ways that teachers can help further the joy of reading in their own classrooms.

Coming in September
This webinar with Dr Stephanie Macmahon will offer educators the opportunity to build a richer, deeper, and more nuanced understanding of the science of learning—one that both extends beyond and strengthens the ideas they may already be familiar with.

Coming in November
In this webinar, Emeritus Professor Christine Rubie-Davies and Associate Professor Frauke Meyer will share findings from the Elevate Empathy project.
