Carly Sawatzki

Dr Carly Sawatzki is a provocateur who challenges thinking around schooling. She wants every student to get an excellent education so they can live their best life. Working as a mathematics teacher educator and educational researcher at Deakin University, Carly designs courses that support preservice and practising teachers to teach differently, by helping them to connect students’ classroom learning with the real world. She is internationally recognised for her thought leadership on young people’s financial capability [financial literacy / financial numeracy] and her critical insights into issues of ethics and equity in education. Carly is widely published on these and other topics and has led research, curriculum and professional learning projects for education authorities across Australia. She is a dynamic and in-demand public speaker, writer, and influencer who loves exchanging ideas, sharing laughter and – above all – making a difference. To find out more, go to www.carlysawatzki.com
