Over the course of multiple virtual events this summer and fall, conference-goers will learn about the latest trends and research in modernizing education, lessons learned in designing new learning models, developments in policy and practice, and cutting-edge innovations that are transforming K-12 education to meet the needs of our rapidly changing world.<\/h3>\n

We’ve designed an entirely new Symposium experience to combine the most engaging aspects of our in-person event with the opportunities embedded in a virtual gathering. Leading up to the main Symposium, we’ve planned a series of webinars designed to prime you for the larger virtual convening. This series includes a special selection of research webinars, generously sponsored by The Leon Lowenstein Foundation. The virtual Symposium will run October 26-28, 2020 and will include three days of learning and interaction with the field’s most forward-thinking leaders.<\/h5>\n
An additional webinar series and our National Policy Forum will follow the Symposium later in the fall. Stay tuned for those details.<\/h5>\n

Helping Schools Realize Their Unique Vision of a Personalized, Competency-Based System Using the Research of Dr. Marzano<\/h4>\n

Bill Zima, Director of Implementation, Marzano Academies
\nBob Marzano (Joining virtually), Founder, Marzano Academies<\/h5>\n

Marzano Academies is a place where all students will learn the content and skills they need for success in college, career, and beyond within a competency-based education program. Based on 45 years of educational research created by Dr. Robert Marzano, the Academies look to implement theories of assessment, instruction, and curriculum, in a culture that promotes learner agency and transforms the school into a high-reliability organization. The Marzano Academies\u2019 model typically progresses through three distinct phases, which correlate with school academic years. Sixteen school level indicators and 10 focus areas of instruction comprise the three phases of Academy development. Come to this pre-conference session and immerse yourself in the model to learn the WHY and HOW schools can support the development of learner agency while supporting them to become competent in the concepts and skills associated with the content.<\/p>\n
