What is bloom's Educational Therapy for educators (BETE)?
Like Educational Therapy for students, BETE is a combination of research based leadership and professional development actions as foundational and transformative steps that lead to equitable and sustainable organizational results. This holistic approach to professional development and empowerment also takes into consideration the social, emotional, ethical and academic perspective of the educator during this development.
We know that transformation is much more than changing direction. Utilizing a combination of educational, therapeutic (wellness), artistic and sustaining practices, BETE encourages educators to explore their development and learning through a variety of research based frameworks and deep reflection through practices such as windows and mirrors.
