Youth voice must remain unequivocally central to education redesign efforts in order to drive positive, authentic change. Join this student panel to understand how students are experiencing this unprecedented time. Students will provide insights and testimony on what\u2019s working in the design of student-centered, personalized, competency-based learning. Students will share their ideas on how we might do a better job rethinking the use of time, space, and place in designing new learning models and schools as we set a path for the future. Youth will offer feedback on how they experience this unprecedented time and guide us to create positive changes in climate and culture while modernizing systems and school structures. <\/span>[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column_inner][\/vc_row_inner][vc_row_inner el_class=&#8221;container&#8221;][vc_column_inner width=&#8221;1\/6&#8243;][vc_single_image image=&#8221;1442&#8243; img_size=&#8221;full&#8221;][vc_column_text]<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center\"><strong>Nia Innis<\/strong><br \/>\nWalter Payton College Preparatory High School<\/p>\n<p>[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column_inner][vc_column_inner width=&#8221;1\/6&#8243;][vc_single_image image=&#8221;1439&#8243; img_size=&#8221;full&#8221;][vc_column_text]<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center\"><strong>Ashley Lin<\/strong><br \/>\nUnion High School<\/p>\n<p>[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column_inner][vc_column_inner width=&#8221;1\/6&#8243;][vc_single_image image=&#8221;1437&#8243; img_size=&#8221;full&#8221;][vc_column_text]<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center\"><strong>Dayvon Woodard<\/strong><br \/>\nNashville Big Picture High School<\/p>\n<p>[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column_inner][vc_column_inner width=&#8221;1\/6&#8243;][vc_single_image image=&#8221;1438&#8243; img_size=&#8221;full&#8221;][vc_column_text]<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center\"><strong>Eloisa Trujillo-Carrillo<\/strong><br \/>\nWestminster Public Schools (Former)<br \/>\nDenver Public Schools (Current)<\/p>\n<p>[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column_inner][vc_column_inner width=&#8221;1\/6&#8243;][vc_single_image image=&#8221;1440&#8243; img_size=&#8221;full&#8221;][vc_column_text]<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center\"><strong>Julius Pedro<\/strong><br \/>\nNative American Community Academy<\/p>\n<p>[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column_inner][vc_column_inner width=&#8221;1\/6&#8243;][vc_single_image image=&#8221;1441&#8243; img_size=&#8221;full&#8221;][vc_column_text]<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center\"><strong>Moderator: Chris Liang-Vergara<\/strong><br \/>\nFounder and Partner<br \/>\nWorld Class Education<\/p>\n<p>[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column_inner][\/vc_row_inner][vc_empty_space height=&#8221;50px&#8221;][vc_text_separator title=&#8221;Day 3 Breakout Sessions&#8221; color=&#8221;violet&#8221;][vc_column_text]<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center\"><b>11:45 AM &#8211; 12:45 PM ET<\/b><\/p>\n<p>[\/vc_column_text][vc_row_inner el_class=&#8221;container&#8221;][vc_column_inner width=&#8221;1\/3&#8243;][vc_hoverbox image=&#8221;456&#8243; primary_title=&#8221;How Intentional Equity Serves All Students&#8221; primary_title_font_container=&#8221;color:%23ffffff&#8221; primary_title_use_theme_fonts=&#8221;yes&#8221; hover_title=&#8221;October 28, 2020, 11:45 AM &#8211; 12:45 PM ET&#8221; hover_btn_title=&#8221;Watch&#8221; use_custom_fonts_primary_title=&#8221;true&#8221; hover_add_button=&#8221;true&#8221; hover_btn_link=&#8221;url:https%3A%2F%2Fyoutu.be%2FAP2Cx8IS-nE|target:_blank&#8221;]<strong>Presenters:<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Lillian Hsu | Eric Collazo | Andy MacMannis | Bennison Ntsakey<\/p>\n<p><a class=\"btn\" href=\"https:\/\/aurora-institute.org\/symposium2020\/how-intentional-equity-serves-all-students\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Details<\/a>[\/vc_hoverbox][\/vc_column_inner][vc_column_inner width=&#8221;1\/3&#8243;][vc_hoverbox image=&#8221;430&#8243; primary_title=&#8221;Equity-Driven Design Thinking: Enhancing Traditional Human-Centered Design with an Equity Lens&#8221; primary_title_font_container=&#8221;color:%23ffffff&#8221; primary_title_use_theme_fonts=&#8221;yes&#8221; hover_title=&#8221;October 28, 2020, 11:45 AM &#8211; 12:45 PM ET&#8221; hover_btn_title=&#8221;Watch&#8221; use_custom_fonts_primary_title=&#8221;true&#8221; hover_add_button=&#8221;true&#8221; hover_btn_link=&#8221;url:https%3A%2F%2Fyoutu.be%2FvHeB06qzKDQ|target:_blank&#8221;]<strong>Presenters:<\/strong><br \/>\nConstance Parham | Lizz Rene<\/p>\n<p><a class=\"btn\" href=\"https:\/\/aurora-institute.org\/symposium2020\/equity-driven-design-thinking-enhancing-traditional-human-centered-design-with-an-equity-lens\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Details<\/a>[\/vc_hoverbox][\/vc_column_inner][vc_column_inner width=&#8221;1\/3&#8243;][vc_hoverbox image=&#8221;427&#8243; primary_title=&#8221;Increasing the Racial, Ethnic, and Linguistic Diversity of the Educator Workforce&#8221; primary_title_font_container=&#8221;color:%23ffffff&#8221; primary_title_use_theme_fonts=&#8221;yes&#8221; hover_title=&#8221;October 28, 2020, 11:45 AM &#8211; 12:45 PM ET&#8221; hover_btn_title=&#8221;Watch&#8221; use_custom_fonts_primary_title=&#8221;true&#8221; hover_add_button=&#8221;true&#8221; hover_btn_link=&#8221;url:https%3A%2F%2Fyoutu.be%2FOHX6RmqSDrU|target:_blank&#8221;]<strong>Presenters:<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Mark Kostin | Ventura Rodriguez | Jess DeCarolis | Sam Galloway | Terrell M.

we are charged with creating it. Global and national trends are inspiring new ways of thinking about redesigning education so all youth can achieve success, contribute to their communities, and advance society. As education leaders, we are tasked with disrupting the structural inequities driving the education systems we\u2019ve inherited and ensure each child has what they need to develop their full academic, social, and personal capacity.
