Embedding a culture of research and innovation LIMITED
Feedback form is now closed.
Limited Capacity seats available

Embracing change is a key element of ISP’s new vision and mission of ‘Educating for Complexity’. The implications that complexity brings to curriculum development, the role of the educator and the student experience are enormous and we recognize our obligation to support our teachers through these important transformations.
We have explored this challenge from many different perspectives and have identified one specific approach that is based on embedding research and innovation as a major part of our professional development programme. In fact, we believe that the natural counterpoint to an inquiry based curriculum is a research led organization and that this is the most natural way to ensure that we continue to provide an authentic and relevant student experience.
In this workshop we will describe our personal journey and share the lessons learned to suggest a possible framework that will allow other schools to adapt the basic model to develop research and innovation initiatives optimally aligned with their own strategic goals and organizational characteristics.
The presentation is aimed at school leaders and decision makers, staff driving curriculum development and all staff who see themselves as agents of change.
