PD Session for York Region Secondary School Teachers

With Young People’s Theatre’s production of The Wizard of Oz as the provocation, participants will be guided through the process of creating their own action research project. Action research is a method of inquiry that provides students with the opportunity and skills to study issues affecting their lives and to plan and implement a course of action to address them. Participants in this full-day session will work in collaboration with professional artists and members of staff to design a research plan. This will include finding a research question, collecting data and evidence, answering their chosen question, presenting their research and evaluating their project.
