“Craig is co-founder and director of Oasis Skateboard Factory, an alternative public high school in Toronto founded in 2009. In our interview, he reflects upon his upcoming retirement, the legacy he’s leaving behind and what he calls “Push Pedagogy.””
If you are a teacher or educator looking for that “engagement hook”, you have to watch this inspiring interview by Meet Me at the Crossroads with Craig Morrison of Oasis Skateboard Factory.
Craig explains how he uses Ted Hunter's invention to engage his students at his TDSB school. (The Toronto District School Board is one of the largest school boards in North America.)
