Teacher Clarity: Recharging our Purpose for Learning - Teacher clarity is both a method and a mindset, and it has an impressive effect size of 0.84.  The concept is not new; it’s just yet to be implemented in ways that ensure students know what they are learning, why they are learning it, and how they will know that they have learned. 

Join Doug Fisher, Nancy Frey, Aida Allen-Rotell, Hilda Martinez, Toni Faddis, and Diane Lapp for a deep dive into evidence-based reading instruction that provides a structured framework developed to teach the foundational skills of reading while developing the motivation and critical reasoning students need to become lifelong readers. 

Join us as we accelerate learning through the Visible Learning research and evidence! Together we will explore and improve student growth and achievement in the context of post-pandemic teaching. Making learning visible demands that we leverage our expertise as educators to make decisions about what content, ideas, and skills we want our students to know, understand, and do. To get there, let's embark on some of the key elements of Visible Learning: Teaching, Leading, Learning, and Equity, which will accelerate growth and make the biggest impact on student learning.

Most teachers across the country have experienced struggles with student engagement or at the very least have wondered how they could get their students to take more ownership over their learning. This training provides teachers and instructional coaches with an understanding of engagement including the cognitive barriers to engagement.

Corwin’s PLC+ Institute provides attendees with a practical and evidence-based framework to support collaborative structures to support planning and implementation of student learning, as well as professional learning (e.g. microteaching, classroom observations) of the teachers and teacher leaders.

Join us for an amazing day of learning where we will move beyond Visible Learning as a ranking system or checklist and towards a way of thinking about our role as evaluators of our impact.  We will unpack the latest findings from the Visible Learning database so that we can engage in deliberate practices around what content, ideas, and skills we want our students to know, understand, and do. Making learning visible will allow you to identify what works best in teaching and learning and how to approach the implementation of what works best in your own school and classroom.

How do educators and teacher teams develop collective teacher efficacy? In this institute, participants will learn about collective efficacy and how to systematically cultivate it their schools. Participants will be guided through each component of a Collective Efficacy Cycle and will engage in a mini cycle during the institute. Participants will walk away feeling energized and empowered to lead a Collective Efficacy Cycle at their sites.

When we create a learning community that works together through a collectivist lens of shared accountability with a focus on equity; we begin to see how educators convene around high expectations for learning across all dimensions of identities. Such learning communities are empowered to explore how their collaborative actions and decisions propel learning forward. Reimagining schooling through a collectivist lens takes effort when we consider that so much about our current system is grounded in principles of individualism and competition.

This institute moves beyond learning intentions and dives deep into how best to support the development and implementation of high-quality success criteria. Engage in an active and empowering learning experience that will enhance understanding of how to create and implement high-quality success criteria.

The PLC+ Certification is designed to equip participants with the knowledge and techniques needed to support delivery of PLC+ professional learning in their schools. As a result of PLC+ certification, participants will be prepared to support and lead teams in engaging in collegial inquiry where members share knowledge, observe one another, analyze evidence of student learning, and capitalize and celebrate the collective expertise that exists with the team.

This institute will focus on how leadership works best for instructional leaders by emphasizing the essential mindframes and research to effectively lead teaching, learning and change. This 3 pronged approach will help participants refine current practices to glean the greatest learning outcomes for both staff and students and make the most of the precious time they spend together. 

This two-day certification is designed to equip you with the knowledge and techniques that will enable you deliver effective Teacher Clarity Playbook trainings in your school system. 

Must be employed by a School System, County Office of Education or Education Service Agency to participate.

Successful PLC+ implementation is a journey, not an event.  There are many challenges and obstacles PLC+ teams will face throughout their journey. One of the core values of PLC+ is Activation and ensuring that adult learning is at the forefront of all PLC+ meetings.

Restorative practices are an alternative to punitive approaches to classroom management. These practices humanize the schooling experience and allow individuals who cause harm to make amends.  Restorative practices rely on strong relationships as well as clear systems and procedures to ensure that harm is addressed. The impact is increased equity for BIPOC students as well as a reduction in exclusionary practices such as suspension and expulsion. But as importantly, students change their behavior as they come to understand the impact that it has.
