Starlight Rays in Darkened Times: Seminars on Contemporary Topics 2024-2025

with Marisha Plotnik

Generative AI raises urgent questions about the purpose and methods of teaching. Now that essays can be written and problems solved with a few keystrokes, how must we differently engage adolescents in the process of learning? This session will offer both ways to understand our work as teachers, and practical advice on forming meaningful activities for students.

Marisha Plotnik has been engaged with Waldorf education as a student, teacher, administrator, and adult educator. A focus of her work is creating dynamic, collaborative, learning communities where new ways of thinking are developed through meaningful encounters. Marisha holds degrees in Physics, Education, and Private School Leadership, and is a graduate of the CfA’s WHiSTEP program, where she now serves as a faculty member. 2024 finds her concluding her full-time position at the Rudolf Steiner School, where she has taught for nearly 30 years, and joining the research staff of the Nature Institute.
