This webinar will explore how the Linked Learning approach to high school reform complements efforts by teachers, schools, and districts to implement the Common Core State Standards (CCSS). Linked Learning provides the 'how' to the 'what' of content standards by integrating rigorous academics with career-based learning and real-world workplace experiences for high school students. Panelists will discuss the parallels between Linked Learning and the CCSS, and share how the approach provides for innovative and integral alignment with standards, curriculum, and instruction.
In this webinar, Brad Stam will discuss how Linked Learning provides an advantage to those implementing college- and career-ready standards. Olivine Roberts will provide insight into Linked Learning district approaches to aligning curriculum, instruction, and assessment with California's content standards, and Louie Rocha will discuss school- and classroom-based instructional strategies. Bob Wise will moderate the discussion. Panelists will also address questions submitted by webinar viewers from across the country.
