The Opportunity
When students engage in deeper and personalized learning experiences, they get to tackle authentic tasks, collaborate creatively, and exercise their voice and choice in how, when, and where they learn. Extensive research in education has consistently shown that this type of learning leads to positive outcomes for students and boosts professional satisfaction among educators.
However, achieving such deep and personalized learning for every student on a daily basis is an immense challenge. It's nearly impossible for a single teacher to accomplish alone. That's why creating different scheduling and staffing models, including allowing for teams of educators with diverse expertise, is an excellent approach to ensure that all students have deeper and more personalized learning opportunities.
​
