We CAN Conversation/Training: In the session, participants will start to understand what systems thinking is, identify the systems in which they exist and have influence, and begin to understand how empathy and equity can begin to redefine what transformational change and success in a system could really look like. CAN will explore how we anchor in Equity as a driver when using both Compassionate Systems (a systems thinking framework used by many in the CA Expanded Learning field and the greater K-12 system) and Continuous Quality Improvement to change not only outcomes but processes for approaching the redesign of an educational system where the invisible are seen and the quieted voices are not only heard but lead the conversation. We will use the SEL framework as a way to simplify and ground the discussion in language that is familiar to the Expanded Learning field.
