Two
Powerful Designs •
One Conference
This conference
will explore tools of achieving student engagement
in higher education and K-12, and the structure and
training that are prerequisites for applying those
tools successfully. The National School Reform
Faculty's Critical Friends Groups design provides
the necessary framework and The Gallup
Organization's strengths-based education program
provides the necessary tools.
