You are invited to submit an abstract for a breakout session to be presented during the
2024 Huether Lasallian Conference that will address the conference theme:

Lasallian Education Today:
Integral, Spiritual, Transformational

WHAT WE ARE LOOKING FOR 

The 2024 Huether planning committee is accepting abstracts for breakout session presentations of 75 minutes in length that will take place during concurrent sessions on Friday, November 22 and Saturday, November 23. Presentations should focus on how Lasallian communities and ministries are addressing the theme, “Lasallian Education Today: Integral, Spiritual, Transformational.” 

Breakout session presentations will share practices from our ministries that exemplify Lasallian education as we embrace educating the whole child. This year, the Huether Lasallian Conference will focus on how we are being proactive to and responding to the current educational landscape while also ensuring that we are meeting the needs of the young people entrusted to our care. The planning committee has surfaced the following as possible topics for the breakout sessions:  

• Evolving Lasallian pedagogy that is inclusive and innovative with the changing educational landscape while meeting needs. 
• Sharing practices that embrace a holistic education as we look to form young people academically, socially and spiritually in our ministries. 
• Facilitating conversation grounded in the Lasallian charism as lived in the classroom/workplace:
  - - How are De La Salle’s teachings experienced in a core content classroom?
  - - How are De La Salle’s teachings experienced in counseling or office settings?
• Sharing practices that include self-care for educators to nurture and sustain their vocational call. 
• Nurturing the spiritual needs of the individual members of a community and the community at large.

During each breakout session, the presenter(s) should focus on how we look at the present and to the future in light of the topic(s).

NOTE: Each presentation may have no more than two presenters, one lead and one co-presenter.
