  6. Grounded in Neuroplasticity: “Genius is more than genes.” “Regardless of the brain with which we are born, every brain is capable of neuroplasticity. This means that with practice and effort we can build the brains we want.” — Judy Willis

  7. Equity Consciousness

  8. Neuroscience and Value of Learning • 90 % – transport nutrients, regulate immune system • 10% (dendrites & axons) • Info processing & connect information THE PROPENSITY OF ALL BRAINS FOR DEVELOPING STRENGTHS & High Intellectual Performances

  9. How do you develop a strength?

  10. Neuroscience of Value and Learning: The propensity of all brains for developing strengths and high intellectual performances

  11. Identifying and Activating Strengths

  12. Student's Self Reflection: Tasha

  13. How does this resonate with what you’ve just discovered?

  14. Definition of Personalized Learning Personalized learning is a progressively student-driven model where students deeply engage in meaningful, authentic, and rigorous challenges to demonstrate desired outcomes. — Zmuda, Curtis, Ullman (2015)

  17. Four Attributes to Build Culture for Thinking

  18. Antiquated Learning Model Only some learners have access to full taxonomy

  19. Reimagined Learning Model • All students need to have foundational thinking and fluency skills. • All students need to be challenged by non-routine application of skills, content, and potentially innovative experiences.

  20. Conduit for Equity Consciousness: High Operational Practices • Identifying and activating strengths • Building relationships • Nurturing high intellectual performances • Providing enrichment • Incorporating prerequisites • Situating learning in the lives of students • Amplifying student voice

  21. Using High Operational Practices • Identifying and Activating Strengths • Building Relationships • Nurturing High Intellectual Performances • Providing Enrichment • Incorporating Prerequisites • Situating Learning In The Lives Of Student • Amplifying Student Voice Culturally Responsive Teaching • Validating • Comprehensive • Multidimensional • Empowering • Transformative • Emancipatory

  22. Through experimentation, feedback, persistent practice, risk taking, failure, and success, every one of us continues to discover our interests, passions, potentials, aversions, values, styles, and tastes.
