I’m proud to be one of the forty learner-centered practitioners, experts, systems thinkers, and young people Education Reimagined brought together to explore and imagine a future of thriving learner-centered ecosystems. The result, Designed to Thrive, is a guidebook to equitable learner-centered ecosystems.

From our group’s collective expertise, experience, and creativity, this guide emerged with frameworks and insights to support on-the-ground systems reinvention. I hope it leaves you feeling as excited about opportunities for invention as I am! https://designedtothrive.education-reimagined.org/

This training, for K-12 educators and school leaders, explores QED’s All Kinds of Minds™ Neurodevelopmental Framework for Learning (NDFL) to understand how the brain receives, filters, and uses information, and to consider how these insights can support classroom and school success. Participants can begin or elevate their understanding of the science of learning through academic themes that include listening, speaking, reading, and writing. During the 4-day virtual workshop, participants will develop a common language and framework to better understand and communicate the neurodevelopmental demands of learning and will leave with tools for next-day classroom use to support the academic, social, and emotional development of all learners.

“How do we develop as many expert teachers as possible?”

The Center for Transformational Teaching and Learning (with Glenn Whitman at St. Andrew’s Episcopal School) addresses the question in their article, “A Powerful Combo: Diversity, Equity, and Belonging and Mind, Brain, and Education”, which explores different strategies grounded in diversity, equity, and belonging (DEB), as well as the science of teaching and learning or mind, brain, and education (MBE).

“Together, DEB and MBE are a powerful combination for great teaching and make learning more equitable—and better for every student, not just people of color, not just students with learning differences.” Learn how they are interc***ected in the article https://www.nais.org/magazine/independent-school/winter-2022/a-powerful-combo-diversity-equity-and-belonging-and-mind-brain-and-education/ (link in bio)
