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.
ELO Woonsocket is an upstart school-community partnership that empowers students to become leaders in learning through the creation and completion of credit-bearing projects, off-site, during out-of-school hours.
Last year, presenters shared the story of how Expanded Learning Opportunities (ELO) Woonsocket came about. They shared the journey of how a small, local arts program became the force behind the design, implementation, and management of a multiple-pathway program at their city’s high school.
This year, presenters will go deeper into the technical and pedagogical dimensions of ELO Woonsocket, including structure, methods, and assessment, as well as their students’ qualitative and quantitative outcomes as compared to district averages.
Schools or districts interested in implementing cutting-edge proficiency-based and student-centered learning strategies will leave this workshop with an ELO toolkit and exercises that allow for rapid progression through the startup process.
