Winter 2017 Standards Institute Keynote Speech - Kate Gerson

UnboundEd Podcast

With the adoption of the standards, the focus on supporting students who are behind grade level is more critical than ever. Yet, even with a clear roadmap of learning from grade to grade, students are still struggling and research shows us that there are huge, glaring inequities in the education system. On February 13, 2017, Kate Gerson, managing partner at UnboundEd gave a keynote presentation to over 800 educators in Orlando, FL at the Standards Institute. The Institute is a twice yearly training with learning pathways in ELA, math and leadership. Her keynote was focused on showing educators that there is a clear path to fighting the status quo through research that will challenge us to change mindsets and practices in order to support all students.
