Leading for Instructional Equity:

Creating the Conditions to Ensure All Children Engage in Deeper Learning

In the next 2-3 years of post-pandemic remote learning, schools will be working hard to establish instruction that ensures there is no learning loss for any student. We have an opportunity to integrate more equity-focused and culturally responsive instructional practices into our standards-based curricula to help accelerate learning. To do this, school leaders will need to rethink what effective instructional change looks like and how to create the conditions for those changes to take root and become permanent ways of teaching and learning.

In this workshop, participants will self-select one aspect of culturally responsive practice they want to implement based on the Ready for Rigor Framework. Working through the process of selecting the right starting point will help create the adult learning culture needed to make the shifts and close the knowing-doing gap.

Topics included:

  • Understanding the Components of Effective Culturally Responsive Instruction
  • Developing a New Instructional Rhythm for Student-Centered Classrooms
  • Reimaging Evaluation Criteria and Pacing Guides
  • Distributed Leadership and Leveraging Teacher-Leaders and Coaches
  • Preparing for the Messy Middle of Change

Participants can expect to gain:

  • A beginning theory of change for improving the instructional core of classrooms in their own context
  • A new evaluation criteria checklist for core culturally responsive practices
  • A change management plan centered around shifting mindsets and pedagogy
