This session explores the transformational inquiry framework – an appreciative, strength-based method for scaffolding identity exploration through four domains of learning (personal, social, cognitive, and action). The presenter, Joshua Streeter, will share examples of how to create an inclusive classroom by using drama and theatre to amplify student voice and choice through reflective and interactive teaching processes.
