Innovation in Education, Social-Emotional Learning (SEL) & SPARK Professional Development | Danya Sundh
Danya Sundh, Coordinator of Coaching and SEL at Libertyville School District 70 in Illinois, shares her deep passion for education rooted in her upbringing and her community ties. Her district embraces innovation by integrating emerging technologies like AI into classrooms through an opt-in professional development program called SPARK, which fosters collaboration, experimentation, and continuous learning among educators. Danya highlights the critical role of social-emotional learning (SEL) in supporting students' use of technology and emphasizes the importance of relationships, grit, and flexibility as essential skills for navigating today’s rapidly changing educational landscape. She offers encouragement to educators to take risks, embrace failure, and build strong networks to thrive.
