What is ACTION DREAMING?
Four 60-minute livestream sessions designed to support educators throughout the school year. This isn't another professional development requirement—it's a space to reconnect with why you teach and how to make it vibrant again.
​​
Each session focuses on "one word" and features conversations with practitioners who understand current school contexts.
​
How can it help?
Teaching today means constant new curricula, practices, and pressures. Many educators feel more surveilled, rushed, and stressed than ever. This stress disconnects us from our students, colleagues, and ourselves.
​
This doesn't have to be permanent—if we work together to change it.
​
Teaching is challenging, yes. But it can also be vibrant, communal, and creative. Join us to make it so. Action Dreaming allows us to share practices and support one another.
