Learning with Friends: Reflecting on Episodes 1-4, Season 3 with Nancy Gabriel and Bruce Nayowith

Join Beth with her guests Nancy Gabriel and Bruce Nayowith as they reflect on highlights and learning from episodes 1-4 in Season 3. We explore how to create intentional “pockets” where people try different ways of working together. The positive examples and inspiration from these experiences can spread. This episode offers facilitators, teachers, and coaches ideas on how to create positive environments for dialogue or learning. We draw insights from conversations with Ria Baeck with Collective Presencing, Emily Daniels with The Regulated Classroom, and Rosa Zubizarreta with Dynamic Facilitation and Citizen Assemblies. We discuss how to create environments for collaborative learning.
