Teacher Professional Development

Empowering educators to build enterprising classrooms

ENTERPRISING IDEAS

2 Hour Masterclass or Full Day Workshop

Classroom creativity doesn’t happen by accident. And, is often the exclusive domain of Business, STEM, and co-curricular offerings.

This workshop is perfect for primary and secondary school educators who are looking to deepen their understanding of the art and science of creativity and innovation in the classroom and how to embed entrepreneurship and/or design thinking in their day-to-day teaching.

ENTERPRISING CLASSROOMS

2 Hour Masterclass or Full Day Workshop

The world of work is changing. For the first time in history, employers are listing more enterprise skills than technical skills in job advertisements (FYA 2016).

This workshop is perfect for primary and secondary school educators looking to deepen their understanding of the ‘future of work’ and how to explicitly build enterprise skills in their classroom.

It’s becoming increasingly difficult for teachers to keep up with new trends, new technologies, and new approaches to learning.

This workshop is perfect for primary and secondary school educators who are looking to deepen their understanding of emerging pedagogies (including project-based learning) and apply these principles to re-imagine their own curriculum and assessment.

This workshop was inspiring and has enlightened my mindset. I will endeavour to try to incorporate what I have learnt and in my classroom education to improve myself and get the best possible outcomes from everyone involved. Thanks, it was awesome!

All schools need to engage in the professional learning provided by Future Anything. It puts into perspective the way that educators need to keep up with the times. Nicole Dyson was an engaging presenter who kept the content relevant to our context.

The day was engaging and encouraged deeper levels of thinking. It challenged my thinking and how to be the change in education. It was brilliant to be provided the space to think outside the square and see where we could shape the curriculum to support our students develop the skills they need to make a difference.

I have participated in many workshops regarding Inquiry and Project Based Learning over the past two decades. This was by far the best and I would highly recommend it both experienced and beginner educators.

This workshop reinforced for me the aims and goals of Project-Based Learning. It provided the tools to get started on this journey at an entry level. I have confidence that we can make this work in and that it will be a really positive change for our students.

When you think of someone who is in the right profession and is doing what they were meant to do, it's not hard to see Nicole is this person. I thoroughly enjoyed and was blown away by Nicole's presentation, past experience that was totally relevant to our industry and her enthusiasm in what she believes in. Nicole is engaging, funny and exactly what is needed to motivate educators.
