Assessment for Learning to Support Student Achievement

DESCRIPTION

The FA Moves framework introduced in this series will open up new opportunities to help teachers and students recognize, evaluate and use “soft data” that emerges during and across a set of lessons. It invites all to drive towards deeper learning with an open, visible classroom-based formative assessment process committed to continuous improvement.

By offering practical tips, video-based examples, worksheets, and templates, you will have the tools you need to make progress–minute by minute, day by day–with assessment for learning practices rooted in research and what works.

Developed in partnership with Center for Teaching Quality (CTQ), this learning path will approach opportunities and challenges through the lens of systems thinking. Modules offer new frames to think about how we lead and influence others, and explore the kinds of structures that help move transformative practice beyond single classrooms to a team, school, or LEA level. Leaders working as superintendents or central office staff, coaches, professional learning facilitators, school-based administrators, and teacher leaders may benefit from these modules.

Navigating a Roadmap for the Next Normal in Education

DESCRIPTION

This learning path focuses on how district and site leaders can establish a strong foundation for this next normal in education (key actions for fall 2021 and beyond). The pandemic has been chaotic, and yet brought to the forefront student equity issues and surfaced innovative educational approaches. Whether school districts have re-engaged in person, in hybrid models, or remained in distance learning, the challenge ahead will be the same for all; navigating the complexities of ensuring equitable growth in student learning.

Developing capacity to lead a coherent system of continuous improvement is foremost a shift in mindset and an ongoing process that is hands-on and long term. However, district and site leaders can engage in learning opportunities that set the stage for enacting systems leadership to achieve equitable growth in student learning.

Resilient, Adaptive, Hopeful Leaders Who Thrive

DESCRIPTION

No one could have predicted that 2020 would have shaped up to be a year of uncertainty, hopelessness, and sadness. Yet, for many students, teachers, and leaders, dreams vanished, learning shifted, and education was fundamentally altered. We reflect on the changes that were made and strive to move forward to reimagine education for all learners. Creativity, adaptivity, perseverance, and resiliency are the building blocks for moving forward. Join this educational series of four short modules, which provide helpful videos, tools, and strategies as we uncover how to thrive in a new world of teaching and learning.
