Among the questions we’ll all explore are:
- What challenges do schools face educating today’s learners?
- What are the best curricula, pedagogy and instructional practices for your district? How do you create the necessary professional learning opportunities and communities of practice?
- What are the right assessment and accountability measures and what do they actually tell school leaders and the public?
- How do we ensure schools have the appropriate infrastructure, with sufficient bandwidth, networking and necessary devices?
- What is the role of leadership and school culture in driving or hindering change?
- How can school leaders look at the use of time and space differently?
- How can districts formulate strategic plans and provide the necessary budget and resources?
- How can districts form community partnerships to gather feedback and create public support?
- How can schools generate the needed data while ensuring privacy and security?
