Breakthrough Models for College Readiness: An Introduction to Next Generation Blended Schools

This compilation of Next Generation Learning Challenges (NGLC) grantee profiles illustrates the innovative approaches of 41 personalized, blended, competency-based learning school models. The K-12 models were awarded grants under NGLC's third and fourth waves of funding, which focused on "Breakthrough School Models for College Readiness." This publication provides practical details particularly of interest to those designing and planning innovative secondary schools. The introduction describes common attributes across the portfolio, including personalized learning, student-directed approaches, hands-on experiences, flexible learning spaces, and interactive and adaptive learning management systems. Following the brief overview, each individual model is profiled. The individual profiles summarize key features through graphics and at-a-glance facts. They also offer important descriptive information about the instructional and financial models and their unique methods and structures to rethink “school” in affordable, sustainable, and scalable ways, so that they work in particular for underserved populations.

Next Gen Tools: Personalized Learning Plans and Learner Profiles

Personalized Learning Plans (PLPs) and Learner Profiles help a student to identify academic and social-emotional needs, goals, and pace; keep track of them; and teachers use them to truly personalize learning. This brief details how three schools in the Next Generation Learning Challenges network are using these tools to advance student learning and success.

Professional Learning

Next Gen Tools: Hiring for Mindset

Because teachers are the most important school-based factor for student success, hiring matters. Hiring for mindset involves a performance-based experience, where current students and teachers have a strong voice in the selection process, and a candidate’s fit with school culture has at least equal weight with performance and content knowledge.
