At the heart of every thriving education system lies a crucial element that serves as the driving force behind all endeavors—students. Beyond mere recipients of knowledge, students are the architects of the future, shaping the character and culture of the schools they attend.  So, in this video, we will explore students' significance as the school district’s primary stakeholders and their profound impact on the entire educational structure. #EducationalLeader, Kim

Two observations about MUCH needed REFORMS to public education: (1) make LEARNING the CONSTANT and time the variable; and (2) design systems that place the LEARNER at the center…NOT the adults. Acceleration Academies accomplishes both — so exactly what are we waiting for?!? https://lnkd.in/emJxgcbF

Wrap up your National School Choice Week festivities with a quick read of my post for Caitlin Condie's blog on best practices in designing #SchoolChoice programs!

Academic vs. Practitioner Tutoring: Who Asks the Better Questions? In design education, students often receive guidance from both academic professors and professional practitioners. A new study by Ada Hurst (1); Shirley Lin(1); Claire Treacy (1); Oscar Nespoli (1); and John Gero (2) from 1: University of Waterloo; and 2: University of North Carolina, Charlotte explore how these two types of tutors differ in their teaching styles (via ICED23 Proceedings: DS 122). https://lnkd.in/gBbXc-uh Join the "Design is a Team Sport" movement at ICED25 Dallas. How can we create a more effective learning environment for design students? What are the benefits of having both academic and practitioner perspectives in design education?

Let's talk about your next school project.

This presentation, featuring Insiya Bream and Darragh McNally, explains how the University of Maryland Global Campus created their CLRs, but largely focuses on the evaluation of the CLR: Do students use their new CLR? How do students view the CLR? Do employers view the CLR as useful and usable? Will the CLR change how professors approach their teaching?
