SUMMARY:OWL Taking Flight: Why We Do The Things We Do
DESCRIPTION:Explore the behind-the-scenes craft of Our Whole Lives design! This “tour\,” will help you with scheduling and implementation and provide tools you can use to craft other types of lessons and programs. You’ll learn the rationale behind workshop length\, scope\, and sequencing; how to use learning goals and objectives to your group’s advantage; and how to tailor OWL to a group’s personalities and needs.
