Do the students in your community have different needs? In a diverse world, that’s inevitable, and it can feel impossible for a teacher or school to meet every learner’s needs at once. But there are evidence-based ways to help every student achieve their potential. In this edLeader Panel, you will discover classroom-tested techniques that your teachers can use right away to keep each of their students appropriately challenged—and appropriately supported—every day. Join us on February 25, at 5 pm ET. 

We are reading Rob Barnett’s Meet Every Learner’s Needs together as a community and our second session is on Redesigning Courses sponsored by ScreenPal on Wednesday, March 5 9 at 7:00pm ET. Register and join us in sharing ideas, questions, and resources.**
