Professional learning intentionally designed for teacher agency over their learning

Empower your teachers to build agency and remove learning barriers

The model for PLCs has been around a long time. But is your PLC focused on evidence-based instruction with an emphasis on equity and activation? And most importantly, are your PLCs functioning effectively?

PLC+ professional learning workshops are designed to refresh current collaborative structures and support educators’ decision making in the context of individual and collective efficacy, expectations, equity and the activation of their own learning. These flexible professional learning opportunities, led by certified consultants, help teacher teams:

  • Focus on common barriers to learning and implement removal techniques to ensure students’ learning is accelerated
  • Identify common challenges facing your PLC
  • Design PLC+ structures that positively impact student and teacher learning

It’s not enough to just build teacher agency, we must also focus on the power of the collective. Empowering your PLCs is a step toward becoming better equipped educators with greater credibility to foster successful learners.

Ready to begin your PLC+ journey?

It’s important that students are able to own their learning no matter what environment they are in. And in order to put the Visible Learning research into action, you need a strong implementation plan. Visible Learning+ is here to help.

Offered as virtual or face-to-face consulting, Visible Learning+ professional learning workshops are designed to enhance the capability of school leaders and teachers to improve student learning and increase schoolwide achievement.

Personalized workshops with a certified consultant cover a variety of topics such as: developing visible learners, feedback, and examining the foundations of Visible Learning. These dynamic sessions include:

  • Exploring high-impact practices from the Visible Learning research
  • How to collect evidence of the extent to which the Visible Learning practices are present in your school or district
