A Smart School; What does it mean to be a smart school?
Webinar Event
with Chris Conlon, Tiffany Conroy, and Katie Streett
Tuesday, September 27
12:00 to 1:00 p.m.
A smart school. What does it mean to be a "smart school?" David Perkins, Ph.D., professor at the Harvard Graduate School of Education and co-director of Harvard Project Zero, a foremost research center on children's learning, defines a "smart school" as one that focuses on one simple question: what kinds of understandings will students acquire? Strong independent schools use a variety of measures and checks for understanding to assess learning and maintain high, challenging expectations. We will share with you and explain the variety of assessments and tools we use to gauge acquisition of knowledge, including classroom assessments, standardized tests, and more. Email Tiffany Conroy to RSVP for this webinar.
