Genius Hour: Passion-Based Learning - webinar

Help students develop their own inquiry question
Classroom 2.0 LIVE webinar: May 18, 2013 (begins at 4m40s)

"Genius Hour is a precious time, loved by all my students. It is when they are allowed to develop their own inquiry question about whatever it is that they want to explore," so says Gallit Zvi (@gallit_z), one of our presenters. Why should you and your students do it? How does this kind of learning inform all we do in the classroom?

Join middle school educators Gallit Zvi, Denise Krebs (@mrsdkrebs), Hugh McDonald (@hughtheteacher), and Joy Kirr (@joykirr), as they share the basic philosophy of Genius Hour (or 20% Time).  You can also find out more on their wiki: http://geniushour.wikispaces.com
