Short Conferences with Other People, or a S.C.W.O.P., is an opportunity to connect adult and youth learners in informal conferences focused on the learning journey.
WHY S.C.W.O.P.?
The learner who participates in the SCWOP has the opportunity to showcase their success, show areas that require further work, and ask for further support in a low stakes situation.
​
Our learning community gains the opportunity to reacquaint with past students, to create a context for conversation, to build community across the school, and to allow for a new window into an individual's life situation and builds, most importantly, a new human connection.
HOW DO I S.C.W.O.P.?
SCWOPing requires a few important steps:
-
5 minutes or less of your time
-
SCWOPee who should be prompted to discuss a specific topic or project
-

​
After the SCWOP:
-

-
adult learner responds to additional support/feedback as soon as possible.
