CLX Community Meetup | April 2020

  • 04.16.2020 @ 9:00am – 12:00pm
  • Zoom Conference

Following the trend brought upon by the current COVID-19 pandemic, we will be meeting via zoom, accessed here.

Each month, the Chicago Learning Exchange convenes a professional learning community of dynamic educators and youth development professionals (also known as Hive Chicago) who believe in the promise of connected learning. Together, they are working to transform the educational experiences of digital-age youth and cultivate an ecosystem—fueled by technology and open innovation—that produces independent, lifelong learners.

Each Meetup features hands-on workshops, presentations, and dedicated time and space to meet with like-minded professionals working to close our city's opportunity gap.

The April Meetup will feature a community spotlight of our member organization Civitas Community Impact Experience and will focus on designing environments that build supportive relationships with peers and adults.
