Deeper Learning: Policies for a 21st Century Education
From the Introduction: “This report is aimed at supporting state boards of education that are working on providing significantly more students with deeper learning opportunities and facilitating board-level conversations on key related topics. The report provides foundational principles that underlie deeper learning, explores issues, provides state examples, and includes worksheets that boards can use to facilitate discussions and come to solutions that make sense given the unique needs of each state.”
This resource provides key information for state boards of education on how to support deeper learning for students. It includes both a rationale for students to attain deeper learning in the 21st century and sets of practical actions state boards can take. Each section provides examples from different states where successful strategies have been used at school, district, and state levels.
