Edmentum's Educator Network invited education coach, author, and advocate Jorge Valenzuela for this special event.

Valenzuela redefines 'high-quality teaching' and shares actionable steps that will empower educators and administrators to:

  • Integrate equity and social-emotional learning into lesson plans
  • Better understand the effects of trauma
  • Incorporate and embrace culturally responsive teaching

With an extensive background as a classroom and online teacher, a curriculum specialist, and a consultant, Jorge Valenzuela focuses on improving teacher preparation in project-based learning (PBL), computational thinking and computer science integration, STEM education, and equity and SEL integration.
