Leading Modern Learning: A Blueprint for Vision-Driven Schools (edWeb Webinar)

Presented by Jay McTighe and Greg Curtis

As schools prepare for a return in the fall, educators have an opportunity to envision and create a “new normal.” In this edWebinar, Jay McTighe and Greg Curtis present ideas from their book, Leading Modern Learning: A Blueprint for Vision-Driven Schools, Second Edition, that offer a compelling vision for a contemporary education. They frame the presentation around these important questions:

• How can we create a “guaranteed and viable” preK-12 curriculum and assessment system that integrates 21st Century Skills with academic standards?
• How might we engage learners in more authentic learning?
• How might we assess everything we claim to value, not just those things that are easiest to test and grade?
• What is the future of grading and reporting?

They also describe the use of “backward design” and the I-O-I framework in planning and orchestrating any important district or school initiative.
