Welcome Message from the Executive Director
It is a privilege to welcome you to the 2024 EARCOS Teachers’ Conference. This year’s subject strands, as we all will recall, were interrupted by the two-year hiatus that was Covid-19. Therefore, it gives me especial pleasure to welcome the EARCOS educators in the following strands to their conference, after a much too long delay!
Global Issues/Global Citizenship
Social Studies/Humanities
Science, Technology, Engineering and Mathematics
Middle School Service Learning
We are all so pleased to be able to join with one another for the second consecutive year to celebrate international education across the region. The next several days promise to offer rich opportunities to think, question, reflect, learn, and share together. I thank each of you for making the journey to support one another in our shared commitment to the very best of teaching and learning.
I am especially appreciative of the support for this conference that we have received, once again, from the Teacher Advisory Council. The theme the council members created nearly a year ago, Awareness, Agency, and Action, has resonated deeply with all our speakers and presenters.
The rich array of topics offered this year reflects the deep quality, talent and commitment of the EARCOS community of educators. I wish to especially thank those of you who have come to the conference to offer a workshop. Your participation is the very heart and soul of this conference. And--I am grateful to the EARCOS Teacher Representatives and the newly formed PLACE team, who do so much to ensure our conferences and other PD’s events provide the very best opportunities for learning.
Please also join me in extending our appreciation to the conference corporate sponsors and to the ever-devoted EARCOS staff for all they do over the course of 12 months to prepare the wonderful days we are about to enjoy together. And our thanks, always, to the Thailand Convention and Exhibition Bureau for their assistance and support.
Finally, please do not hesitate to let us know should you require any assistance during the next several days. In the meantime— Enjoy! Welcome one and all to ETC 2024!
Edward E. Greene, Ph.D. Executive Director

Having Hard Conversations: Finding Your Voice Around What Matters
As colleagues, coaches or team leads, we often come up against situations where difficult topics must be addressed. What do we know about the best strategies for those moments? What questions should we be asking ourselves before we speak, and what environments are best for when we do speak? Based on Jennifer’s book, Having Hard Conversations, and her work with conflict and interpersonal communication, this session will provide participants with action plans and scripting tools for having those necessary hard conversations.

Building Instructional Coherence Supporting Equity and Engagement in Mathematics
Instructional coherence means ensuring that every element of instruction — from core instruction to interventions to extended time—works together to advance grade-level student experiences. At the most basic level, a coherent instructional system builds academic and socioemotional supports that prepare the way for and extend grade-level learning. This means that students engage in instructional experiences that have a link and relationship with each other and with core grade-level instruction. (Read more on Whova App)

3 Steps to Building a Thriving Coaching Culture
Is your school working to build a coaching culture? Many schools in the EARCOS region are hiring instructional coaches and building coaching programs, but there is still a lot of uncertainty around what makes an instructional coaching program work.

From Passenger to Co-Pilot (to Autopilot?): Practical Ways to Assess WITH Our Students
For far too long, assessment is what we have done to students, not with them. If we are going to truly reframe and disrupt how students demonstrate their learning, assessment redesign must loom large on our collective radar. Research suggests the extent to which students perceive assessment to be authentic, formative for teachers and not reliant on external factors, the more they will engage in it.

Integrating Literacy Throughout the Day: Practical and Powerful Ways to Bring Deeper Reading and Stronger Writing into Content Area Studies
It’s rare to find a class where students aren’t involved in reading and writing activities, whether it’s crafting math explanations, producing lab reports, or delving into historical texts. Regardless of age, students are routinely called upon to engage in nonfiction literacy tasks that extend beyond the reading and writing classroom. (Read more on Whova App)

The NGSS & K-12 Framework for Science Education call for a massive pedagogical shift, providing equitable science learning through skills, concepts, and phenomena-based sensemaking. And though the NGSS (and AERO Science standards) just turned 10, many educators and schools are finding it challenging to get traction for their initial implementation or regain the powerful practices that lost ground in the pandemic.

CH-CH-CH-CHANGES (202?)– Deeper Learning, Chat GPT and the Road Ahead
David Bowie offered a timeless warning to all educators. When speaking about our students, and the inevitability of change, he suggests they may ‘be immune to your consultations, they’re quite aware what they’re going through.’ Education gets a little more complicated with each passing year. With the aftershocks of a global pandemic still reverberating, overnight artificial intelligence (or AI), most notably Chat GPT, has dominated the headlines and many other educational conversations.
How are educators and schools supposed to adjust to the realities of digital computer or robot can perform tasks typically reserved for intelligent beings – us! How might we need to adjust instructional and grading practices? Could AI help teachers navigate AI? How do we stay relevant? Perhaps we need to rewind a little through history to look for clues as to how to manage change and adapt to new technologies, all the while striving to deliver what are students and communities need (and want).
Regardless, unless you have an accurate crystal ball perhaps is more important than ever for us to examine our purpose. With a clear sense of who we are, and the service we provide, perhaps we can enter an era where we look at technology and change with a little less trepidation and a lot more confidence

You Make A Difference - Catalysts of Change: How Tiny Actions Create Monumental Change
In 1995, Loung returned to Cambodia, 15 years after leaving the country, to reunite with her family. This marked the beginning of her journey as an activist in Cambodia, advocating through her writing and involvement in campaigns to ban violence against women, the use of child soldiers, and landmines. Nearly three decades later, Loung realized that her path of seeking healing and redemption had not been traversed alone. At its very beginning were the influential influencers, the original catalysts for change, who showed her how one could make a difference in another’s life. They were her mentors, teachers, and supporters, playing crucial roles in expanding her heart and mind, enabling her to not only survive her war but to work for peace. (Read more on Whova App)

Bringing Visibility to Invisible Disabilities: Understanding What You Cannot See
Join Russell as he takes your hand and walks you through the world of autism, mental health, and disabilities. Using his hindsight and insight from his lived experience to generate foresight for others, Russell will unpack these vital aspects of the human condition in a relatable fashion and lay out pragmatic approaches on how best we can support those with invisible disabilities. Sometimes, what we do not see is more important that what we do see.
Biography
Russell Lehmann is an award-winning and internationally recognized thought leader, speaker, poet, and advocate contextualizing autism, mental health, disabilities, and the overall human condition. His words have been featured in the USA Today, LA Times, NPR, Yahoo! News, Success Magazine and archived in the Library of Congress. A graduate of MIT’s “Leadership in the Digital Age” course, Russell sits on numerous boards such as the national Board of Directors for The Arc of the United States and is a lead council member for the Autism Society of America. He also serves as an advisor to NEXT for Autism and is a consultant for the US Department of Justice, restructuring our criminal justice system in a more equitable fashion for those with disabilities.

Keynote Speaker: David Begbie The Grand Ballroom
Be the Change
We stand in an era troubled by war, poverty, displacement, slavery and a host of other issues. So often, there is a longing to respond, to affect tangible change, to see this world other than it currently is. But how? Can one person’s life make a difference? Come and reflect on the power of the role each of us has to play in changing this world for good.
Biography
David Begbie is Director of the Crossroads Global Village and a senior spokesman for the humanitarian aid and development organisation, headquartered in Hong Kong.
Over the past 27 years, David has spoken widely about the work of this organisation, representing them for the press, educational institutions, business corporations, consular and United Nations events. He is also the director of Crossroads’ experiential programs which have seen over 245,000 participants engage in simulations, including attendees at the World Economic Forum in Davos, Switzerland. His role includes strategic leadership in the development of opening up our site further as a ‘destination of inspiration’ for the Hong Kong community. David holds a Bachelor of Arts in East Asian Studies and a Master of Arts in NGO Leadership. He grew up in Asia, living in the region for over 40 years. He makes his home in Hong Kong with his wife, two sons, and dog.
