Research indicates that most standards documents articulate far more content than can be taught in the time available to K–12 teachers. In response, analysts at Marzano Resources sought to identify, as objectively as possible, a focused set of critical concepts for each grade level in the content areas of English language arts (ELA), mathematics, science, and social studies.

Level 1 of the High Reliability Schools (HRS) framework addresses the factors considered foundational to the well-being of a school, including educator wellness. Based on the combined works of Dr. Timothy D. Kanold and Dr. Tina H. Boogren and their framework for educator wellness, this webinar will help you learn how to live a well-balanced and fully engaged life in order to build a safe, supportive, and collaborative school culture that positively impacts student achievement.

In part 1 of this dual series, Dr. Robert J. Marzano and Dr. Brian J. Kosena will begin to answer the question “How can a school or district make the shift to competency-based education?” The pair will dive into exploring essential CBE components such as proficiency scales, learning progressions, instructional planning, and standards-referenced reporting. Dr. Kosena will share real-life field experience from his time as the founding principal of John E. Flynn A Marzano Academy, a preK–8 school in Colorado, and both Marzano and Kosena will be available to answer questions from school and district leaders alike.

The first step in developing effective teachers is creating an effective model of instruction. Melanie Lewis Magee led a 24,000-student district in doing just that, using input and feedback from classroom teachers and campus and district administrators. Having a model of instruction ensured a common language of effective teaching and learning that drove professional development and teacher evaluation. Join Dr. Magee as she shares strategies and practical steps to crafting your own model of instruction.

Do you want all of your learners to be inspired? Do you want them to believe they have the skills and knowledge to control their lives—whatever they choose? Competency-based education (CBE), focusing on clarity of outcomes, evidence of student learning, and feedback for improvement can help teachers, schools, and districts do just that.

In an educational landscape marked by increasing demands, it's crucial to recognize that the well-being of educators directly impacts student success and teacher retention. This webinar is an interactive experience designed to equip educators with tools, strategies, and routines they need to prioritize their well-being, ultimately leading to improved student outcomes and increased job satisfaction.

Standards-based education is becoming more and more common across the country. The approach is typically implemented at the school level. When it is, the school leaders support the change and are deeply involved in adjusting practices, processes, and policies to support the work. But what about the individual teacher or small group of like-minded teachers who wish to implement a standards-based grading approach in their classrooms but still adhere to the school or district’s traditional requirements?

Motivating and inspiring students is no easy task. In Motivating and Inspiring Students, Tina H. Boogren, Robert Marzano, Darrell Scott, and Ming Lee Newcomb outline a six-level hierarchy of student needs, offering K–12 teachers actionable strategies to deliver engaging instruction. Explore the six levels of the student-needs hierarchy in this insightful webinar and gain insights into motivation and practical strategies to engage and inspire students effectively.

Discover how competency-based learning (CBL) can transform education and better support every student’s unique needs. In this webinar, you will explore the core principles of CBL and how it differs from traditional models. Through actionable steps and real-world examples from Westminster Public Schools in Adams County, Colorado, you will learn how to design and implement a personalized competency-based system in your own schools or districts.
