How does this course work?
The DPE combines live and asynchronous learning, allowing you to apply wellbeing strategies and reflect on their impact as you progress through the course. Each week you will:
-
Discover: Access pre-recorded videos from members of our team and related resources exploring a key Positive Education concept (approximately 30 minutes)
-
Participate: Join a live, weekly, online session, where you will meet with fellow educators and our facilitators to deepen your learning and engagement (approximately 60 minutes)
-
Experiment: After your Participate session, you will then engage in a micro project related to the focus topic and then post a reflection online for your cohort to see and comment on (maximum 30 minutes).
At the end of the course, you will submit an Impact Project, which is an opportunity for you reflect on the impact that this course has had on you and/or your community. This deeper reflection and the experience of designing an intentional activity will help you move forward with confidence in applying strategies in your school and other communities.
