Today we're reaching across the globe to speak with Donna Fields in Valencia, Spain.
Donna Fields, originally from New York City, became a teacher in New Mexico, a decade later considered returning home, but took a bit of a detour on the plane back - to Spain - and more than 20 years later is still there. She has been a Primary, Secondary and University teacher, gives workshops on empowering students in their own learning, is an author of books on dynamic activities to help content and language learners transition more fluidly into new information, and has a series of books on creating Phenomenon-Based Learning projects - what is now becoming mandatory in many countries in Europe. She lives in Valencia with one house on the beach and another in the mountains, with a dog, and six wild cats from the hills.
Donna sees the world as a teacher and helps learners become curious. She considers herself a facilitator of learning! Spain is very conventional, and teachers "talk" to their students rather than offering more participatory experiences.
You don't want to miss this conversation about helping learners transition into knowledge. Donna creates activities for all different learning styles so this show is for YOU!
Contact Donna on her website. She'd love to hear from you: www.scaffoldingmagic.com
