Seven Principles of Learning
|
|
Put Learners at the Centre
Yukon educators must be relentlessly curious about what’s going on for students in the system. Student learning is the driving force, but students aren’t the only learners. In an innovative learning environment, everyone is a learner, including teachers, support staff, formal leaders, parents and others.

Understand that Emotions are Central to Learning
Yukon educators understand and apply the dynamics of social and emotional learning. They are attuned to their own emotions and motivations, and to the emotions and motivations of others—including the positives, like satisfaction and self-efficacy; and the negatives, like helplessness and anxiety. They understand how emotions affect performance.
