EDUCATORS for ATTENTION:
Resources for Educators
The EDUCATORS for ATTENTION cohort is a community dedicated to better understanding the role of teachers in ATTENTION ACTIVISM and disseminating pedagogical techniques to cultivate attentional flourishing in the classroom.
EDUCATORS for ATTENTION meet once a month on Zoom. During these meeting we invite guest speakers to present on topics related to pedagogics of attention (archive below). Each gathering encourages educators to connect and share resources.
We welcome educators from all levels, disciplines and places. In EfA, college professors are talking to kindergarten teachers and choreography teachers are talking to math teachers. We believe a broad coalition of educators stands to be a powerful force in ATTENTION ACTIVISM.
