Equity instructional resources

Employing student-centered instruction is the basis of an equitable, exemplary education. It’s why we actively support access to rigorous content and high-quality instructional practices. We believe a greater opportunity for equity exists in systems that allow for student engagement and the use of culturally responsive assessments, curricula, and supplemental programs. We provide unique insight to help schools and communities navigate issues of equity.

The Continuing Educator | How culturally responsive teaching enables student agency, with Benjie Howard and Lindsay Prendergast

This episode will explore elements of culturally responsive teaching, supportive environments, and the actions that educators and leaders can take to create a space where students belong, feel valued, and thereby are more likely to take risks, make mistakes, and build a sense of self-efficacy that will serve them well in their academic journeys and in their lives beyond school.

The Continuing Educator | The problem with grading behavior, with Matt Townsley and Chris Thoms

Traditional grading practices typically incorporate non-learning measures such as behavior and effort into an average. Yet by mixing achievement and behavior, we miscommunicate on both accounts. Students and parents still need information on both, but the critical step is to separate reporting, and Dr. Matt Townsley and NWEA User Experience Designer Chris Thoms will share with us both why this is crucial for equity, and how teachers can put it into action.
