Entrepreneurship Practices for Every Teacher
Saturday November 7, 2026 9:00am - 10:30am PST
What if entrepreneurship learning could happen in a history class, during a science experiment, through a podcast project, or even in the way students solve everyday problems? This 90-minute hands-on workshop explores how entrepreneurial thinking including curiosity, creativity, adaptability, initiative, and problem-solving can be developed across any subject area, not only in business classes. 


The session will also address current educational challenges, such as fixed mindsets, stereotypes students carry about themselves and others, student engagement, and the impact of AI on learning. Participants will experience practical activities, analyze real classroom examples, and leave with strategies to create more meaningful, creative, and student-centered learning experiences.

Student Agency in Action: From reflection to classroom practice
Saturday November 7, 2026 10:45am - 12:15pm PST
This session is designed to engage educators in reflective, collaborative learning around the concept of student agency. Participants will begin by exploring a series of real-world case scenarios that highlight different manifestations and challenges of student agency in school contexts. Working in small groups, educators will analyze and discuss the scenarios, sharing perspectives, questioning assumptions, and identifying common themes related to student voice, choice, ownership, and responsibility. Following these discussions, facilitators will introduce key concepts, research-based frameworks, and practical definitions of student agency. This content will help participants connect their initial reflections to a shared conceptual understanding and language.To conclude the session, educators will apply their learning by developing their own proposal or action plan that promotes student agency within their classroom, grade level, or school context. The session will intentionally move from experience → theory → application, ensuring participants leave with both clarity and concrete next steps.
