Episode Summary
On this episode I explore the power of storytelling with a specific focus on migration stories in our local communities. To help me unpack this, I am joined by four students who (at the time of recording) just finished 7th grade at the International School of Bangkok. Maggie, Mira, Pammy and Kanan learned about migration like many 7th graders across the globe, but their experience was a little bit different. They also learned about active listening, interview skills, and how do use their critical thinking skills to create videos to share migration stories from their own community. 

Discover a transformative podcast on education and learning from a student perspective and student voice, exploring media, media literacy, and media production to inspire citizens in schools through a media lab focused on 21st-century learning, empathy to impact, Global citizenship, collaboration, systems thinking, service learning, PBL, CAS, MYP, PYP, DP, Service as Action, futures thinking, project-based learning, sustainability, well-being, harmony with nature, community engagement, experiential learning, and the role of teachers and teaching in fostering well-being and a better future.
