That’s right, everybody’s favourite free professional development series is back! This being TeachBetter’s seventh series, we are excited to be focussing on the topic of Experiential Learning.
Outdoor education has been in the spotlight this past month in Chinese media, with study tours and off-campus learning experiences quickly gaining momentum. Over this past year, 6 million people of all ages have taken part in study tours, even higher the pre-pandemic number of 4.8 million in 2019.
If you want to make sure that your school is staying on top of a quickly changing sector, want to learn from some of the industry’s leading experts from across the world AND become part of a passionate and supportive teaching community in China, then scan to register and put these dates in your diary.
