Core Offerings in K-12 and Higher Education

We provide a systematic approach to school improvement that integrates three strands into a focal point for change—one classroom, one teacher, and one student at a time.

Professional development and training

• Keynote addresses/Invited talks
• Workshops

Meet with all relevant stakeholders to conduct professional development workshop; introduce Duckor & Holmberg’s “7 Moves” framework (ASCD, 2017) that links classroom instruction to formative assessment; engage participants in authentic problems of practice in curricular content; provide exemplars and tools for enriching student learning; and lead reflection on implications for teacher self-assessment, PLC portfolios and site evaluation.
