Workshop 4G: Teaching In Resonance
Friday July 10, 2026 8:30am - 9:30am EDT
As educators, we value and curate our course content. As Quaker educators, we strive to bring every student into community, with integrity, while nurturing their individuality. Resonance, the scientific concept, refers to an efficient exchange of energy. Resonant Teaching refers to the idea that students learn best when in a purposeful relationship with their teacher; they intentionally seek to know one another, or, to Quakers, seek one another’s Light Within. We offer Resonant Teaching as a framework for merging these two important tasks of true learning and true connection. We believe that when resonance is achieved, teaching and learning seem to propel themselves forward. We will explore strategies for taking the purposeful craft of resonating with students from the mystical and metaphorical to the actionable. 

**This workshop will also be held on Thursday, July 9 10:00-11:00AM (Workshop 2).**
