High School Level Session

Category: Curriculum & Instructional Strategies
Time: Monday, February 24, 11:45am-1:15pm
Room: 1-B

This session dispels educational “either-ors” with the story of a high school that has aligned its core curriculum to enrich academic content and provide expanded opportunities for critical thinking, creative, and community building, while increasing student achievement on normative examinations. Multiple perspectives will be examined in this account of how “you can have it both ways.” Lecture, multimedia, and interactive formats will examine theoretical and practical considerations.
