What if learning began with student questions, not teacher objectives? This session explores inquiry-based, student-centered models that challenge traditional teaching. Discover how to create classrooms where curiosity drives learning, thinking is visible, and students take ownership of their learning. We'll share real-world practices and bold shifts that redefine school as a space for co-creation, not compliance. If you're ready to rethink what’s possible in education, this is your invitation.
