PRE-CONFERENCE WORKSHOP

A pre-conference workshop will be held Wed 6-Dec 9am-12pm with Liz Block and Sara O’Brien from Harvard University. The workshops will explore empirically-informed case studies that centre on real-world dilemmas of educational ethics confronting educators and policy makers. Workshop attendees will be given the opportunity to ethically reflect on these case studies to develop a mutual understanding and a shared language for discussing ethical challenges.
