The University of Michigan-Marsal Family School of Education, in collaboration with Globestar Consulting Services, is set to host the University of Michigan-Marsal Globestar Education Leadership Summit 2024, a groundbreaking event tailored for Indian educators and school leaders. Scheduled to take place in Mumbai and Delhi from January 28th to February 3rd, the summit will be led by distinguished faculty members from the esteemed Marsal Family School of Education at the University of Michigan and Taubman College of Architecture and Urban Planning.
The three-day summit in each city will encompass workshops, school visits, case studies, and panel discussions, culminating in the prestigious Education Diligence Awards (EDA) ceremony, recognizing and celebrating excellence in education.
With approximately 280 million school-going children and a shortage of 1 million teachers in India, the education system faces significant challenges. The summit aims to address these gaps by engaging 120 school leaders across the country in collaborative teaching and learning processes. Open to 150 educators on Day 3 at each location, the summit seeks to provide a broader reach and engagement within the education sector.
Targeted primarily at school owners, directors, heads of schools, principals, and aspiring educators, the summit will cover topics such as curriculum development, disciplinary literacy and AI, innovative instructional approaches, best practices in school administration, and technology integration. The event offers a unique opportunity for stakeholders to gain insights into creating a vision for their educational institutions, ensuring consistent progress and financial sustainability.
Elizabeth Birr Moje, Dean of the Marsal Family School of Education, expressed enthusiasm about bringing their expertise to positively impact the Indian education landscape. Dhaval Mehta, CEO and Founder of Globestar Edutech Pvt Ltd and TNI Career Counselling, emphasized the summit’s role in exploring best practices and innovative approaches to transform education in India.
