Show 77: Summer PD Series 4, Teach Like a C.E.O. Part 1

When students are leading the learning community, they have to have a passion for learning.  We can fuel that passion through a high-quality culture of learning.  In this first of a three part series all about Teach Like a CEO, we learn the frameworks and systems for developing a holistic approach to student centered learning.  Part one focus on the C in the acronym, "Culture for Learning". If we want and expect students to navigate content independently, they have to become a part of a classroom culture that values learning.  Ken showcases specific strategies you can embed into lessons and projects that encourage this exact culture.

In This Episode We Cover:

• Defining the C.E.O framework.
