2024 Hawai’i Deeper Learning Hui on June 12-14 2024
Introduction: A Call to Deeper Learning in Hawai’i
The intersection of powerful place-based and culture-based learning and a growing deeper learning movement in Hawai’i provide an opportunity for educational transformation. The Hawai’i Deeper Learning Camp, rooted in the principle of "Ma ka hana ka 'ike" – "In working, one learns" – invites educators to a journey unlike any other. This event is not just a conference; it's a movement towards experiential, culturally responsive teaching that resonates with the deeper learning philosophy.
The Backdrop: Why Hawai’i, Why Now?
Hawai’i's unique cultural and educational landscape is fertile ground for pioneering deeper learning practices. In a world where education often struggles with the balance between tradition and innovation, the Hawai’i Deeper Learning Camp is a beacon of progressive learning, integrating hands-on activities with collaborative leadership.
Our Vision: Shaping the Future of Education
Our objective is clear – to foster a community of educators who are not just teachers but changemakers. We envision a gathering where ideas flow as freely and collaboration is recognized as instrumental to educational practices that are transformative, sustainable, and deeply rooted in cultural understanding.
The Event: A Tapestry of Experiences
Scheduled for June 12-14, the Camp is a carefully woven tapestry of experiences. From the Pau Hana networking event to the immersive field experience with Ma Ka Hana Ka ‘Ike, each element is designed to inspire and invigorate. The collaborative sharing sessions and the Ho'ike celebration are not just events; they are milestones in our journey of deeper understanding and connection.
