3. Forum
What are Speak Out Forums?
Speak Out Forums are small groups of discussions that have been happening all over the province. Students in grades 9-12 are invited to talk about their educational experience with the Speakout team.
At a Speak Out Forum, they are asked four questions:
- What does it look like when you are learning at your best?
- What is holding you back from learning at your best?
- What actions can ADULTS take to improve how education looks and feels?
- What actions can STUDENTS take to improve how education looks and feels?
You can be the forum host too!
