Strength Based Practices: Seeing Students Differently
Strength-based practice shifts the educational lens from fixing deficits to recognizing and building on student assets. This course explores how to intentionally notice, name, and nurture strengths in ways that affirm student identity and increase engagement. Educators will learn to reframe challenges, design strength-based supports, and co-create learning environments where every student’s gifts are visible and valued.
