    Hello everyone!

    Thanks for coming to the Voc Talk Café and if you weren’t able to make it, no worries! You can check out the recording, discussion notes and resources on the Voc Talk Café by Après-cours website page here, and read the session summary below!

    Summary

    In today’s session, we looked back at the first half of the year and reflected on our first 12 episodes, highlighting key takeaways and favourite moments. We also discussed ideas, hopes, and ambitious aspirations for future episodes. Our key insights reveal that our discussions have opened numerous avenues for exploration, and hearing teachers’ perspectives on various topics has been particularly enlightening. We noticed that certain subjects, such as AI and sustainability, are especially rich in content and warrant further exploration in upcoming cafés. These discussions will help deepen our understanding of these complex topics. By reviewing our progress and planning ahead, we hope to enhance the quality and impact of our future episodes.

    Do you have an idea for a Voc Talk Café discussion topic that you would like to discuss with your fellow teachers across the province? Let us know! We can help you set it up! Thanks to all who participated in discussing this very interesting subject, and I look forward to the next session!
