No Cost to Attend Be the Spark: Nurturing Student Inspiration When a student is motivated to work toward a goal, it’s usually because somewhere along the line, they were inspired. This workshop will help educators nurture the spark of student inspiration that leads to motivation. We will identify tools and strategies to create a classroom environment that encourages student inspiration as we reconnect and rebuild in the coming year.
