The Regional Moving Forward with High School Redesign Collaborative Day will focus on three specific questions:

  • What does it really mean and look like to personalize learning?
  • How does a PBL pedagogy support the foundational principles?
  • Why is it important to shift the way we assess and evaluate learning when we teach in this way?

The day will begin with an interactive session led by Alberta Education's Leadership Excellence Branch on How is Student-Centred Learning Reflected in the Professional Practice Standards? Time will be provided for schools to reflect on their current practice. 

The second part of the day will provide time for school participants to engage in focused discussion on each of the three areas from the morning. The goal being to share and learn from one another about things other school authorities are doing well, hear about barriers and challenges, and think together about creative solutions/hear creative solutions others are working on. This is also the opportunity to make personal connections with other schools for future conversations to support school plans. Participants will be grouped according to size of school first and then according to the Phase (number of years school has been involved in High School Redesign project) that their school is in with High School Redesign project.

The day will close with participants returning to their school teams and sharing back to the group what they heard or learned in their breakouts. They will respond to the prompt: "How will we create the conditions for success in our own redesign related to these 3 topics?".

We encourage schools and school authority leads to register as teams to maximize their learning within the design of this network day.

This learning opportunity is supported by a grant from Alberta Education.
