Community of practice and innovation
For those who have completed the ecl QUEST, and developed an understanding of the basic principles, we will also be offering an on-line space where you can, with other like-minded people, go deeper into the ecl practice. In community, we can then continue to shape this approach to parenting, classroom teaching, specialist educational support and school leadership.
This growing community of ecl practitioners is currently most active in the UK where services - including learning circles, workshops, coaching and consulting - and peer support groups, have emerged following six years of research and innovation. Local hubs with licensed practitioners are also now beginning to spring up in different regions around the world.
We hope to make this Community of Practice and Innovation available online in Autumn 2010, as a dedicated web space offering practitioners a range of learning and practice resources, forums and guidance from lead practitioners. We are also looking forward to seeing how such a diversity of inputs, values and perspectives can create new and pioneering insights as part of a global quest to release our children and young people's creative potential.
It is anticipated that the insights and contributions from this growing co-creative community will inform new and existing Research and Innovation.
