Transforming learning from character education
Can virtue be taught and learned? How can we teach them at school?
The Varkey Foundation promote a trailblazing project with the support from the John Templeton Foundation. For 18 months, 20 outstanding teachers from Latin America, as ambassadors of the Global Teacher Prize, have been working to turn their classrooms into research labs. These efforts are underway in Argentina, Brazil, Chile, Colombia, Ecuador, Mexico, Peru and Uruguay.
The findings of this work will be presented at the Congress. Learn more about the program by clicking here.
In addition, the Congress will bring together international experts and leading teachers from Latin America to discuss innovative practices, character development research in schools and scalable scenarios at regional and global levels.
