Student Driven Learning

The Les Paul Media Center was filled today with teachers and students for the inaugural SDW Youth Summit. From engaging activators to deep conversations around personalized learning, ideal learning environments and lesson/unit planning.....the students were driving the day!


Each teacher agreed to turn over the keys of the lesson or unit planning to the students! Students were co-designers of the classroom planning and helped develop future learning experiences for their own classmates. There was positive ownership, commitment and excitement for learning that was amazing to see!
This is what school is about!


Eighty-five of our SDW learners....

Connected learning with their interests, talents and passions....
Actively participated in the design of their learning....
Became responsible for their own learning that included voice and choice on how they learn...
Identified goals for their learning plan...and
Had fun being the central driver of their learning!

Thank you to everyone who participated is this fabulous day!
