Teaching Resilience and Responsibility in the Classroom: Up to the Challenge

By Jay Jackson

School is a series of challenges. Every assignment, project, presentation, and assessment is a challenge; however, not all students understand why they are doing these challenges and how to persist when the work becomes difficult.

In this webinar, Jay Jackson will teach educators how to use simple tools to foster deep and meaningful discussions about student self-awareness, integrity, purpose, passion, positivity, courage, commitment, and grit. This process will help students understand how they can be successful and happy by meeting challenges head-on.

Participants will:

  • Learn to use tools to support important student-led discussions about how to best take on new challenges
  • Reflect on their own practices in the classroom regarding how they approach challenges
  • Brainstorm lesson ideas that teach content but also allow students to reflect on specific character traits
