Let’s Get REAL
CompetencyWorks Blog
As we all know, there is nothing better than learning from other practitioners. So Boston Day and Evening Academy’s Responsive Education Alternatives Lab (REAL) is a great opportunity. Registration has just opened for the July 8-11 training in Boston.
The objectives of REAL include:
• Learn the process for creating competencies that both align to the Common Core and meet the needs of your students;
• Build benchmarks and competencies and scaffold them into a scope and sequence;
• Work in content teams and by program;
• Leave with a work plan that allows you to fully implement competency-based learning and assessment;
• Become part of a national peer-learning network.
There are scholarships available to all registrants by the Nellie Mae Education Foundation.
