10 Expectations by Big Picture Learning

When we decide test scores and graduation rates are no longer the best metrics for determining the success of a learning environment, we are invited to explore learner-centered assessment techniques that recognize the wholeness of each learner.

As we explore the child behind the numbers, we will discover hidden insights about what makes each learner “tick.” Since 1995, the pioneers at Big Picture Learning have been digging into these characteristics and have developed a great resource for educators, parents, and learners to assess how the needs of each learner are being met. With over two decades of experience working in partnership with learners, BPL has determined “10 Expectations All Students Should Have of Their Schools.” Check out what these expectations are and how they might assist you in furthering learner and community engagement in your environment.
