💡 Some BEST decisions are made when you are uncomfortable. I remember debating with myself whether or not to apply for the Compass Education Systems Thinking webinar. The dilemma was not the program, but the fact that the program was happening during my midterm break where I was supposed to switch of and unwind and here I was thinking, do I really need this. But GUESS WHAT, I followed that 1% part of my brain that said do it you might enjoy it (because lets face it, the 99% was ready to shut it down) and this was amongst the best decision I made as the series of webinars was nothing short of powerful. It gave us insights on systems thinking for sustainability in the classroom and the beauty of it was how practical and engaging these sessions were. Nicole Swedlow, Gitanjali Paul and her team were a powerful group of facilitators. I am now using the knowledge learned to expand our Service Learning program and also empower other educators in different workshops that I will be part of. My Fav takeaway was “Don’t Stress the Mess” If you're and educator, get on this! #Servicelearning #ProfessionalDevelopment #CompassOnline #SustainabilityEducation #SystemsThinking #SystemsThinkers #Africa
