Supporting the School of the Future
As K12 schools face the need to respond to global pandemics, prepare the workforce of the future, and integrate new technologies, new instructional models are necessary. Although teachers are educational experts in their content areas, they often lack the time to investigate new curricula and their potential implications for the classroom. Instructional designers provide the methods and skills to systematically create effective, efficient, and engaging learning experiences in diverse contexts.
In this session, we will share concrete instructional design processes and teacher engagement strategies necessary to transform current educational practices. Furthermore, we discuss approaches to fostering student-centered learning, considering the pedagogical implications of the latest technologies, and achieving measurable (data-driven) outcomes.
