2023 keynote topic: Best day ever

Steve Spangler is the science teacher you always wanted in school. Without warning, things would fizz, pop and explode and the next thing you know his students were chanting “Best day ever!” But something else happened… amidst all that fun, Steve discovered that his students engaged at a higher level, listened with greater intention and were eager to learn more.

During this entertaining and inspirational presentation, Steve will demonstrate how BEST DAY EVER moments are more than just a feeling or emotion. BEST DAY EVER is a powerful principle that helps educators create experiences that stimulate engagement at the highest levels and help students build connections that spark critical thinking and creativity.

You’ll leave inspired to connect differently, challenged to think differently, and committed to engage differently as you set out to create your own BEST DAY EVER™ experiences.
