We are excited to try a new program to help you plan your experience at the 2016 NESSC High School Redesign in Action Conference. PLEASE NOTE: That all sessions are on a first-come, first-serve basis. Adding a session to your personal agenda does not ensure yourself a seat in the session, but rather a way to help you plan where to head.
If you need help with your sched.org account, please contact Becky Vance, rvance@greatschoolspartnership.org.
When competency-based learning meets Career and Technical Education, the possibilities for creating real world, personalized learning experiences are endless. As a high school located within a CTE Center, Manchester School of Technology (MST) is able to design relevant learning experiences in its classrooms and beyond through the close collaboration of faculty members across programs and content areas.
Presenters will share how the framework they have developed leads to integrated experiences that require students to demonstrate their learning across multiple content areas and fields as well their learning to 21st century skills such as communication, research, and critical thinking.
Participants will leave with an understanding of how to collaboratively design and facilitate learning across content areas in a competency-based environment. Participants will have an opportunity to apply MST’s approach and develop ideas for projects or units they can create in collaboration with their colleagues in their districts.
