THANK YOU to everyone who provided feedback and input into the creation of the newly revised learner profile. We are excited to launch the new, grade-span-specific profiles this fall. Although the structures vary at each grade span, the underlying value and purpose are the same...to support students in developing a deep understanding of themselves as learners through opportunities to self-reflect and advocate for their learning needs. Through our research this past spring and summer, one thing was reiterated continually. The learner profile is the FOUNDATION of ALL personalized practices. If a strong system of learner profiles is not in place, there will be nothing to ground any other PL practice. Students cannot take ownership of their learning if they do not know themselves as learners and are not supported in reflecting on their learning needs. If we do one thing exceptionally, it has to be the learner profile!
Please take a minute to review this brief video introducing the new learner profile. Specific information on each grade span's revised profile will be provided in the near future.
