Welcome back to MindShareTV, Canada’s learning and technology podcast, where we connect with the people, ideas, and innovations shaping the future of learning.
I’m Robert Martellacci, Founder and CEO of MindShare Learning Media & Consulting, and today we’re exploring a timely and powerful topic: experiential learning and how young people develop the skills, confidence, resilience, and leadership needed to thrive in school, work, and life.
I’m delighted to welcome Laura Briscoe, Senior Director, Experiential Education, Business Acquisition and Communications with The Duke of Edinburgh’s International Award – Canada, also known as Award Canada.
The Award is a globally recognized experiential learning framework that empowers young people in Canada, ages 14 to 24, to build confidence and real-world skills through structured, goal-based activities. (dukeofed.org)
Laura brings a rich background as an educator and system leader in global competencies, innovation, and experiential learning. She now supports Award Canada in aligning the Award with best practices in education and helping youth develop essential life skills through meaningful, real-world learning. (dukeofed.org)
Laura, welcome to MindShareTV!
