John Hattie and his team have spent countless hours analyzing data to determine what has the greatest effect on student learning. He has written multiple books on the topic, with many practical ideas that can be implemented quickly and relatively easily that will help you to help your students even more than you are now. Together, explore the principles of a Visible Learning classroom as laid out in Hattie’s Visible Learning for Teachers: Maximizing Impact on Learning. You’ll leave the edWebinar ready to refocus your instruction to capitalize on the strategies that will have the greatest impact on your students’ learning.

Each student is unique. How can we better support each student’s individual needs? Including for our ELLs? To do so, differentiated instruction is a critical approach to understand.In general, differentiated instruction can take place along four avenues:Content: Figuring out what a student needs to learn, and which resources will help him do so.Process: Activities that help students make sense of what they learn.Projects: A way for students to “show what they know” Learning environment: How the classroom “feels” and how the class works together. The session first introduces differentiated instruction and then focuses on the idea of “process” and how these processes shape learning and remembering. After this foundation, the session illustrates multiple traditional and non-traditional sensory paths to work with students to gather and link information to understand concepts and solve problems.

The past year has brought an unprecedented amount of federal funding to K–12 education. While initial CARES Act funds were primarily spent on emergency needs in response to the COVID pandemic, such as PPE and devices to support remote learning, the subsequent two rounds of funds (CRRSA and ARP) have the potential to significantly advance the strategic plans of many districts.
