This design thinking experience provides intentional collaboration among educators that are working to implement learner-centered practice in their classroom, school, or district. Educator cohorts work as a community of practitioners to follow the design thinking process as they work to bring learner-centered practices to their environment. Participants also have the opportunity to join a “Personalized Learning in Action” session to visit learner-centered environments and see the work in action. This opportunity is open to any interested district but may be most appropriate for school-based teams that want continued support over an extended period of time using a structured process. Successful implementation of personalized learning typically involves a team working together in conjunction with a supportive administrator. Therefore, participants are encouraged to be part of a team; we strongly encourage one member of the team to be an administrator.
