Educator Zone
Educator Zone
Over the years different youth facilitation teams have created workshop outlines and educational resources to accompany the videos they’ve created. They’ve been designed to deepen learning about the issues addressed in the videos, and set the table for courageous conversations about equity and justice in classroom settings. The evolving Educator Zone is a space to share and easily access these materials.What’s here now is the tip of the iceberg. More resources coming soon.
