SUMMARY:The F Bomb in Education: Do All Students Have the Right to Fail? With Mary Catherine Swanson
DESCRIPTION:AVID Australia and Victoria University invites you to a unique opportunity to share in the wisdom of a truly inspirational educator and innovator\, Mary Catherine Swanson.\n\nNamed the 2001 Time and CNN Best Teacher in America\, for creating AVID – the longest running whole school reform program in the USA\, and now in Australia – Mary Catherine has influenced the lives of millions of students. \nFrom her first class of 32 students in 1980 to the over 1.6 million students being taught AVID strategies every year\, in the modern day\, the AVID program has focussed on equipping students with the cognitive and academic skills they need to thrive. Her approach\, informed by research-based evidence\, the insights of former students and the program’s lasting belief in improving teacher quality\, has seen AVID go from strength to strength. \nIn Australia\, the recent Grattan report found that as many as 40 percent of students in Australian schools are unproductive and disengaged\, taught by teachers who feel ill prepared and supported for the challenges they face in the classroom. With 37 years of experience and success\, the AVID program provides a time-tested template to address these issues. \nMary Catherine’s keynote will be followed by a panel discussion\, which will feature Michael Traill AM\, founder of Social Ventures Australia (SVA)\, an AVID school principal\, and a leading academic on school education. Peter Goss from the Grattan Institute will act as the discussant on the night. This is a once in a lifetime opportunity to hear from Mary Catherine Swanson in what is likely to be her only trip ever to Australia. \nEvent details\nDate: Thursday 30 March 2017\nTime: 5.30pm (for a 5.45pm start) – 7.30pm\nVenue: Victoria University Convention Centre\, City Flinders Campus\nLevel 12\, 300 Flinders Street\, Melbourne\, 3000\nRSVP: Tuesday 28 March 2017 \nRegister now!\nWe look forward to seeing you there.
