Reading, Writing, and Asbestos: Reporting on School Infrastructure and Modernization

Evidence is a word that is said a lot in the world of education these days. With so many edtech tools used by teachers and students, what evidence is needed to tell if those tools are actually working? How can you take evidence and turn it into action to improve student and teacher outcomes and experiences? And, importantly, what are the first steps administrators can take to get started?

As many colleges seek to attract older, working adults as students, professional development offerings have become key. Whether enrolling in degree, certificate or neither, whether online or in person, this adult market is becoming crucial. This webcast will explore the opportunities and challenges for higher education. The range of programs colleges are creating and how they differ from those of the past.

In this edWebinar, presenters Susan Winebrenner, M.S., and Lisa M. Kiss, M.Ed., describe how to identify twice-exceptional (2e) students—students who are gifted and have another learning difference—and meet their academic and social-emotional needs in any classroom. These principles will also benefit other learners, since the methods described apply to all gifted/advanced students as well as those with learning difficulties, whether or not they are twice-exceptional.

The future of education will require new school models, new approaches for teaching and learning, and innovative leaders who can create the conditions for deeper, student-centered learning. In this edWebinar for school and district leaders, explore learning models that support personalized learning and increase learner agency. Informed by research and extensive experience leading transformative change in districts and schools, panelists will share five key enabling conditions for achieving meaningful change. Viewers will have the opportunity to identify where they are in the transformation process and will uncover strategies and tactics to successfully navigate from vision setting, to establishing a learning model, to iterating and achieving impact for all students at scale.
