The Center for Professional Learning is facilitating three education projects in Ukraine to support the resilient Ukrainian educators through the war and help them build toward bright futures.
This initiative provides materials to early childhood educators, primary school teachers, and practical psychologists in Ukraine so they can better support children in their classrooms and learning programs through trauma-informed approaches to mental health and psychosocial support (MHPSS), as well as social and emotional learning (SEL).
English Language Teacher Preparation and Social-Emotional LearningThis initiative supports the enrichment of English language teacher preparation programs at pedagogical universities and other higher education institutions in Ukraine through exploration of English language teaching (ELT) methodologies, teacher observation and feedback, and integration of social and emotional learning.
Exploring & Enacting Holistic Language Pedagogies ProjectThis project connects language teachers in Ukraine and the U.S. in a Community of Practice, where they have opportunities to learn and share innovative and holistic teaching approaches. Biweekly webinars and workshops and an intensive virtual exchange focus on social-emotional learning, psychosocial support, Content and Language Integrated Learning (CLIL), project- and play-based learning, and asset-based pedagogies.
