Two things teachers always need more of: time and money. We can’t help with the money, but we can help you save precious planning time by leveraging the power of AI to support specific design areas and elements within the New Art and Science of Teaching (NASOT). In this one-hour webinar, you will get an overview of NASOT, focusing on the importance of each of the three domains—feedback, content, and context—and learn how AI can provide critical assistance to support each domain.

Transitioning to a standards-based classroom is a major change, but one highly beneficial for both teachers and students. In this one-hour webinar, Jan K. Hoegh highlights the paradigm shifts necessary for teachers to transform their curriculum, instruction, assessment, and feedback practices. This high impact event will provide useful tools and examples of practical applications as you explore the teacher’s critical role in effective standards-based learning.

Effectively supporting beginning teachers is crucial both for their retention and for developing their expertise. In her book Supporting Beginning Teachers (2nd edition), Tina H. Boogren shares the research critical for understanding how best to support those just entering the field. During this interactive webinar, she details specific strategies for designing an effective mentoring program that provides the essential physical, emotional, instructional, and institutional support from mentors and coaches from the very beginning. Dr. Boogren will also give a brief overview of how mentors and coaches can best support beginning teachers in accordance with their unique needs.

Dr. Robert Marzano has spent decades researching effective instructional practices, and his Marzano Mastery Approaches provide a structured way for schools to implement competency-based education successfully. In this webinar, you’ll learn the seven key domains that shape competency-based learning and unpack the critical decisions schools must make to ensure meaningful implementation. Whether you’re just beginning your journey or refining existing practices, this session will give you a clear framework to align grading, assessment, and instruction with mastery-based principles.

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.

According to Dr. Robert Marzano's research, a safe, supportive, and collaborative culture is the foundation of a high reliability school. In fact, creating it is the first order of business for ensuring a successful learning environment. In this session, you will gain information, ideas, and insights for fostering a school culture that meets all three attributes.

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.

In this one-hour presentation, you will be invited to consider an organizational model that synthesizes research and knowledge from an array of fields—such as education, the social sciences, neurology, biology, and psychology—into a dynamic, holistic, and contextualized structure that empowers all educational organizations to meet the needs of every learner and community.

In this session, Dr. Acosta will focus heavily on the Professional Learning Community and resulting collaborative teams process designed to support the work of a High Reliability School. Participants will not only explore how to install high functioning collaborative teams, but they will also discuss ways to monitor and give feedback to teams. Participants will be given examples of implementation and practice.

Teachers often are told what to do to provide high-quality instruction, but the how can be elusive. The New Art and Science of Teaching (NASOT) bridges this gap, offering educators a practical framework for developing both. In this exclusive webinar, Melanie Lewis Magee will guide you through the NASOT, empowering you to elevate your teaching practice.
