Making the World A Better Place - One Classroom at a Time | Kendra Bostick | Hilary Burns | S5EP2
Which would make the bigger difference? Giving a child a diagram of a bicycle, or having them ride the bicycle and experience how?
I guess that's an obvious question. Kikoriapp.com is an Experiential Social Emotional Learning Platform where kids get to ride the bike. Kendra Bostick, founder and owner of Kikori, shares her story, and how Kikori is changing the way children learn.
It's not telling them what to do, it's having the child tell you how they will change their own behavior.
Teachers, students and parents love it. Listen to this world changing interview to find out how YOU can change how children learn, and how we can create the next generation of fulfilled, passionate, children.
