Personalized learning, when done right, can transform a school for the betterment of students. In order to do it right, principals need to find the funding and resources to support effective initiatives. To support them in this work, Education Elements is offering a grant to help principals implement lead student-centered learning initiatives with success.
The Education Elements Grant for Personalized Learning Schools will provide a principal with $3,000 to use toward classroom redesign or programs that will directly benefit student learning and outcomes, 12 months of access to Education Elements’ Personalized Learning Toolkit and six hours of virtual support with an Education Elements consultant. Principals can apply through Sept. 30, 2019. For more information or to apply, visit: http://bit.ly/PLGrant.
“Personalized learning should be accessible for all schools, but sometimes they lack the funding and expertise to move an initiative forward,” said Anthony Kim, CEO of Education Elements. “By providing recipients with the tools and support they need, we can help drive positive change for schools, teachers, and students.”
The Personalized Learning Toolkit provides school leaders with resources to implement personalized learning using Education Elements’ proven four-step methodology for change. It helps them plan, design, and launch a school- or district-level student-centered, personalized learning initiative. The toolkit includes everything a leader who is short on time needs:
Customizable meeting and workshop agendas, slides, resources, and an implementation plan to guide the personalized learning initiative
Materials for teacher and leadership team workshops to help staff understand what personalized learning is and how and why it helps students
A School Reflection Journal to understand readiness for this instructional shift, guide reflection, and monitor progress
A Resource Library with best practice examples from schools and districts around the country
“The resources in the Personalized Learning Toolkit have been super valuable,” said Heather Hurley, supervisor of personalized learning at Arlington Public Schools. “In fact, whereas I used to spend time researching activities and planning agendas for my schools, I am now able to leverage the resources directly from the kit. The kit also has a project management tool that keeps me very organized; it has streamlined our transformation process.”
