DEEP LEARNING LAB 2015New Pedagogies for Deep Learning

Join the global conversation about leading edge practices from multiple countries that are fostering Deep Learning accelerated by digital.

October 13-14, 2015

Bell Harbor International

Conference Center

2211 Alaskan Way, Pier 66,

Seattle, WA 98121

There is a revolution in learning rapidly emerging in some schools and school systems. What is phenomenal is that the ideas are coming from the field first, not from research. These developments need to be informed by research, and need to be enabled, assessed and spread. The Deep Learning Lab is our first opportunity to feature this early work. We hope that you will investigate new ideas, interact with global participants and contribute to as well as learn from the various innovations.

On behalf of the full NPDL team and presenters we are very pleased that you are participating in this learning lab. We very much look forward to learning with you!

We are a global innovation partnership dedicated to transforming learning by building knowledge

about deep learning competencies, the pedagogical practices that develop them and ways to

measure progress. We believe every child deserves an opportunity to develop competencies

of: collaboration; communication; critical thinking; creativity; character; and citizenship so that

they flourish in a complex world. We are joined by families, teachers, leaders and policymakers

worldwide who are jointly seeking ways to transform pedagogy and provide conditions that will

facilitate deep learning. We invite you to join the movement!

In the past, education was about teaching people something. Now, it’s about making sure that individuals develop a reliable compass and the navigation skills to find their own way through an increasingly uncertain, volatile and ambiguous world. These days, we no longer know exactly how things will unfold, often we are surprised and need to learn from the extraordinary, and sometimes we make mistakes along the way. And it will often be the mistakes and failures, when properly understood, that create the context for learning and growth. The presentation looks at the knowledge, skills and character attributes that are of growing importance and the kind of learning environments that will help foster these.

The Power of Collaboration

Using the NPDL rubrics to guide them, a group

of seven Christchurch schools have transitioned

from being insular and competitive, to being highly

collaborative and collegial. The schools are now

operating as a ‘collective’, with a shared concern for

the students in their area of the city, and the impact

on teacher engagement and student achievement

has been significant. Margot McKeegan, Professional

Learning Service Facilitator, CORE Education, Ltd;

Derek Wenmoth, Director of E-Learning CORE

Education, Ltd

A tool kit of strategies to assist teachers to design for deeper learning

Join the Victorian cluster and explore ideas to develop

a shared understanding of what deep learning is and

gain tips for designing learning; encouraging student

agency over their learning; and assessing learning

progress. Share reflective processes to review the

learning design ensuring a cycle of continuous impro-

vement. The strategies shared have been used at a

Cluster and school level. Marc Blanks, Senior Project

Officer and NPDL Capacity Lead, Digital Learning and

STEM Branch Department of Education and Training

Victoria; Lynn Davie, Director and NPDL Co-Cluster

Lead, Digital Learning and STEM Branch Department of

Education and Training Victoria

NPDL: A catalyst and connector for Finland

There are 7 cities in the NPDL program in Finland.

Oulu, Helsinki, Espoo and Salo. Anneli Rautiainen

from the Finnish National Board of Education will be

speaking about the challenges and possibilities of Fin-

nish education in the light of the newly designed core

curriculum, which will be deployed in the Autumn of

2016 in all Finnish schools. The new curricula consists

of transversal skills, which are similar to the 6C’s in

NPDL. Participants will have opportunities to ask

questions of the Finnish participants/representatives.

How Deep was our Learning?

In this session we will experiment with Teaching

Channel‘s interactive collaboration platform, Tch

Teams, as a tool to promote deep learning among

educators. Join us in a collaborative experience

designed to hone our craft through the use and

examination of artifacts. Erika Nielsen Andrew, CAO

Teaching Channel

Connecting Peers with Purpose

Drawing from examples from the New Pedagogies

for Deep Learning project, this presentation will

examine how Victorian Dept. of Education’s schools

are using innovative technology to uniquely connect

teachers to data and evidence of student outcomes,

alongside visibility on the strategies responsible for

producing, or failing to produce those results. It will

show how by connecting teachers to decisional data,

within and beyond their schools, we are socializing

change, building pedagogical and capital and driving

the cultural shift to change viewed as a persistent

collective enterprise. Phil Stubbs, Education Director,

Verso Learning

Fostering Global Citizenship, Character, and Collaboration as a Future Friendly School

PRESENTERS






The Deep Learning Competencies, better known as the 6 C’s, are the skill sets each and every student needs to achieve and excel in, in order to flourish in today’s complex world. These competencies form the foundation for the New Measures and NPDL teachers use the Deep Learning Progressions to assess students’ current levels in each of the six Deep Learning Competencies. They combine this with information about student achievement, interests, and aspirations to get a clear understanding of what each student needs to learn.

BECOME A CLUSTER100+ schools

NPDL invites clusters of 100 or more schools to join and collaborate

to improve learning for every student by engaging all levels of the

education system.

BECOME AN ASSOCIATE NETWORK

More than 5

NPDL Associate Networks are smaller groupings of at least 5 schools from

anywhere in the world that are working from within their system to bring deep

learning to their students.
