Personalization - Thinking Small and Going Big by John Craig https://padlet.com/jcraig14/jterm Hazen Union Middle Level students and faculty engaged in a J-term last June, modeled after work from Lyndon Institute and other Vermont schools. Teachers created authentic, hands-on, applied learning seminars from the interests, strengths, and passions of our students; seminars were led by staff and community members to provide opportunities for meaningful learning experiences. Join us as we share our process and resources in this whole-school effort to create personalized, proficiency-based, flexible pathways for our students. en-us 2017-11-02 17:46:27 UTC 2025-11-11 08:08:55 UTC hello@padlet.com https://padlet-assets.s3.amazonaws.com/icons/Dartstarget.png TIIE Blog Post jcraig14 https://padlet.com/jcraig14/jterm/wish/203042789 http://tiie.w3.uvm.edu/blog/j-term-at-hazen-union/#.WftZNROPLBI]]> 2017-11-02 17:48:55 UTC https://padlet.com/jcraig14/jterm/wish/203042789 J-term Brainstorm jcraig14 https://padlet.com/jcraig14/jterm/wish/203044160 https://docs.google.com/presentation/d/1KGNqAragJJkL-tMOnA9fa4vqbPKFsy4KkRW02MWS6Vc/edit?usp=sharing]]> 2017-11-02 17:51:13 UTC https://padlet.com/jcraig14/jterm/wish/203044160 Curriculum is the vehicle to teach transferable skills jcraig14 https://padlet.com/jcraig14/jterm/wish/203046176 2017-11-02 17:54:30 UTC https://padlet.com/jcraig14/jterm/wish/203046176 Project-Based Learning allows students to explore interests using transferable skills.
