Shift Your What‪?‬ The HDSB Shift Team

In this final episode of season 1 of Shift Your What, we sit down with Rossana Bisceglia, Research Specialist at Halton District School Board, Nogah Kornberg, Associate Director of the I-Think initiative and Jacqueline Newton, Superintendent at the Halton District School Board with a portfolio in Innovation and Ingenuity.

Together we reflect on how the year of Shifting and I-Think went, how we attempted to do things differently and what the impact of using Integrative Thinking as tools to Shift have made an impact on students, teachers and leaders in the school board.

In this episode of Shift Your What, we talk to English teachers Cait Fehir and Jen Plens about using new integrative thinking tools in their class and challenges and opportunities that come with experimenting and trying something new.

Shift Your What sits down with grade 7 teachers Christine Vanderwal and Michael Marchione, grade 7 students Satwika and Hasnain along with Nogah Kornberg, Associate Director of I-Think, to talk about the Peacebuilders Challenge, and the powerful moments created when using Integrative Thinking to creatively solve a real world problem, where student voice is not only considered, but actively sought out.
