Deeper Learning New York

In an era shaped by artificial intelligence and rapid automation, durable, human-centered competencies, critical thinking, reasoning, collaboration, communication, are rising in importance. The question for school and district leaders is no longer whether students are talking, but whether their talk is producing thinking.

Do we want our students to be future ready problem solvers who are able to address challenges they care about in their schools and communities? If so, we need to teach them how to engage in deep inquiry and support them to take meaningful action. The Solutionary Framework can be used across grade levels and content areas to support students to lean in and step up. There is no better leadership training we can offer! 


Through active learning approaches and dialogue, participants will consider how solutionary teaching and learning can help students develop all of the skills described in the NYS Portrait of a Graduate. We will use video, student work samples, and project examples to show what this can look like in different school settings. This is an excellent session for school and district administrators and teacher leaders who are looking for practical ways to make shift happen.
