Jon Young, renowned tracker, mentor and author of several books, will offer a 2-day training in Coyote Mentoring. Jon has been embraced by many communities and cultures across the world for his deep knowledge and awareness of nature and tracking, his insights into societal patterns and imbalances, and the deep nature connections that are necessary to shift these patterns for individuals as well as in the fabric of our culture.
Coyote Mentoring is a distinctive and highly effective educational approach developed by Jon Young that uses children's innate enthusiasm for the natural world as a context to actively engage them in the learning process. This approach develops the capacities of students for learning, problem solving, and full expression, and re-awakens their natural sense of wonder.
Through a combination of lecture, storytelling, discussions, group activities, and peer teaching sessions, participants will learn:
The importance of heightened awareness in students, and how it relates to critical thinking and problem solving
How to use symbol and metaphor to create a powerful educational environment
The role of brain patterning, and the natural flow of the human learning process
How stories, song and other artistic expressions open a doorway to authentic student growth
Essential routines found throughout the world that ground students in their senses and expand awareness
As a result of taking this course, participants will:
Experience for themselves how powerful the "cultural context" is in education
Take home powerful images and metaphors to cultivate a supportive learning environment in their classrooms
Acquire concepts to facilitate development of their student's full potentials
Learn how to use stories and storytelling as an educational tool
Understand the primary teaching styles of the Coyote Mentoring approach and how to appropriately utilize them when working with students.
