Participants will explore the building blocks of CE, the CE learning and engagement process, and approaches to assessment in CE, and will gain an understanding of both the aims and the specific requirements of CE. The workshop will focus on practical methods to encourage achievement of the aims and learning outcomes of CE, and participants will have the opportunity to consider a range of approaches to bring CE to life in their diverse contexts with consideration of their students and wider communities, as well as of their school resources.
