No Bells, No Walls: Learning from the 2014 LRNG Innovation Challenge Grantees (Part 3)

This is the final webinar in our three-part series that featured 2014 LRNG Innovation Challenge grant recipients who shared the work they have been doing alongside youth as they produce, tinker, experiment, make, perform, and create, expanding time and space for youth interests and production-centered work in their schools and teaching/learning contexts. The LRNG Innovators Challenge is investing in teams of educators, in and outside of schools, who are working together to expand the connected ways that learners have to create, explore, and follow their interests and passions across the spheres of their formal educational lives and out-of-school communities. This webinar celebrates the successes of the past year and surfaced ongoing inquiries around this work.

Guests for this webinar included:

• Steve Fulton, Teacher-Consultant, UNC Charlotte Writing Project in Charlotte, NC
• Dave Chandler, Director of Community Outreach, Aldo Leopold Charter School in Silver City, NM
• Sharon Holmes, Teacher, Tilden High School in the Chicago Public Schools District
• Suzanne McBride, Associate professor, Columbia College in Chicago, IL
