2026 TExpL Conference: Designing for Real-World Impact
This second annual TExpL Conference will bring together educators, practitioners, and community partners to explore how meaningful learning experiences can connect students with authentic challenges, real-world contexts, and opportunities for contribution.
Grounded in the principles of Total Experience Learning (TExpL), the conference will showcase practical approaches to inquiry-driven, experiential, and community-connected learning. Through presentations, workshops, and collaborative discussions, participants will discover strategies for designing learning experiences that extend beyond the classroom and engage students in meaningful work alongside community and industry partners.
Presented by educators completing the TExpL Graduate Certificate, featured sessions offer practical, classroom-tested examples that can be adapted across grade levels and disciplines.
