February 2, 2016: Teaching for Deeper Learning for All Students
Please join the Alliance for Excellent Education (the Alliance) and the National Commission on Teaching and America’s Future (NCTAF) for this third webinar in a series designed to explore the conditions needed to support great teaching for deeper learning. The promising practices, recommendations, and lessons learned will inform a collective effort, led by NCTAF, around supporting great teaching.
This webinar will focus on a vision for what deeper learning looks like and the teaching to support it. What research and best practices support educators in providing all students with opportunities to develop the competencies they will need to succeed in the future?
Panelists will take an in-depth look at building a culture of collective responsibility to ensure all students have access to deeper learning. They also will discuss creating conditions to support deeper learning, including new roles for teachers along with sufficient time for professional learning and collaboration.
Bob Wise, president of the Alliance and former governor of West Virginia, will moderate the discussion. Panelists will also address questions submitted by viewers from across the nation.
