Conferences Sharing up-to-date research and learning strategies with educators.
Because educators are life-long learners
Engaging Learners’ presenters, coaches, and professional development leaders are all experts in their fields.
The Engaging Learners team is dedicated to the mission of providing educators with the tools they need to prepare all grade 4-12 learners for the classroom and beyond. That’s why we are among the most popular speakers at educational conferences all over the country. Conferences present a great opportunity to meet us in person. (Note: Engaging Learners plans to resume in-school professional development and in-person speaking engagements as soon as it’s safe to do so. In the meantime, check out Dr. McKnight’s Morning Meeting webinars; the schedule and registration links are posted at www.katherinemcknight.com. Contact us if you’d like information about virtual coaching or customized online professional development for your event or district.)
