We’re passionate about quality education and work tirelessly to help schools improve. District and system leaders bear awesome responsibility for these efforts, often without access to peers and experts who can provide solutions and insights. That’s why we offer a weekly Leader Chat with top K–12 experts, business executives, and school leaders from around the country to discuss and solve real leadership challenges.
In this episode of Leader Chat, Jeff converses with veteran educator and accomplished author Jay McTighe. They delve deep into McTighe’s extensive career in curriculum design, assessment, and professional development. Highlights include discussing the foundational ‘Understanding by Design’ framework, systemic integration of modern learning practices, and the importance of prioritizing competencies in today’s ever-evolving educational landscape. Tune in for part one of this insightful conversation.
