ABSTRACT:

CONNECTEDkind method is currently praised as the “revolution in education” by leading experts in Education for Sustainable Development and is the subject of a current scientific brain research for future education models in Japan.
This paper however will focus on the CONNECTEDkind philosophy and results from the implementation of the pilot program with 226 elementary school children during academic year 2021/2022 at Conejo Elementary in California. After two years of remote learning thanks to this method Laura Belevica witnessed the students showcasing growth in emotional learning skills, creativity, resilience and self-confidence.
