Developed at the University of Minnesota, Whole Learners© is a comprehensive and innovative program that improves connections between educators and their students, resulting in increased student engagement, and fundamental positive changes in school culture and climate.
More than Professional Development
Research shows that students who feel connected to a caring adult in school are healthier and more successful academically. Teachers know it takes more than traditional professional development to address the needs of diverse learners more efficiently. Great ideas are only useful when applied to the classroom,
a challenge well beyond traditional training approaches. Whole Learners effectively support teachers to create and nurture relationships in their classrooms.
