Learning Environment: Author Talk

  • Busboys and Poets 2021 14th Street Northwest Washington, DC, 20009 United States (map)

Join award-winning New York City educator Dr. Jared Fox in—and out of—his classroom on an excursion that goes beyond books and lectures to reimagine teaching and learning. Through a blend of real-life examples and practical commentary, readers will see how Fox created localized learning opportunities for his students out of canoeing on the Bronx River, hiking in the Catskill Mountains, and other unconventional approaches.

Author Jared Fox will be on the Busboys stage to share more about “the teaching practices that ignited his students' motivation and commitment to quality work--transformational practices that can improve any classroom” (Ron Berger, author of Leaders of Their Own Learning). Copies of the book will be available for purchase during and after the event, and Dr. Fox will be signing following the program.

This event is free and open to all. The program begins at 6:00 pm, and will be followed by an audience Q&A. Copies of Learning Environment will be available for purchase before and after the event. Please note that this event is in person and will not be livestreamed. 

Please RSVP in order to receive direct updates about the event from Busboys and Poets Books
