This year we've been doing research and interviews on the question of how student success is or could be defined and measured in student-centered learning environments. On October 23, we're releasing a new paper summarizing our findings and ideas. Join us that afternoon for a paper release happy hour. You’ll connect with other student-centered learning enthusiasts, hear a brief presentation on the paper's findings, and be the first to get a copy!

A new paradigm for public education is emerging to fit the realities of the 21st century, in cities as diverse as Denver, Washington D.C., and New Orleans. These cities all have one thing in common: they embrace a public education system that relies on school autonomy, accountability, and choice.

Join us Tuesday, Feb. 7th with Silicon Valley-based Summit Learning as they describe their free program to help schools implement personalized learning, and the software they are developing in collaboration with engineers at Facebook that tracks students’ personalized learning plans. Hear from educators participating in a pilot, and about how you can participate.
