What are Innovative Learning Environments?
For the last 2 years, teams of educators across the district have been coming together to imagine how they might bring the 7 OECD Principles of Learning to life in their classroom, using the 6 WISE recommendations in community. This allows for teachers to co-plan, co-teach, regroup students in various ways, and integrate learning in creative ways. The goal is to create learning environments that empower students to take charge of their own learning in deep and meaningful ways. For more information, see:
