We’ve all had the experience of truly purposeful, authentic learning and know how valuable it is. Educators are taking the best of what we know about learning, student support, effective instruction, and interpersonal skill-building to completely reimagine schools so that students experience that kind of purposeful learning all day, every day.
Matchbook Learning has been refining a student-centered, blended, turnaround school model. Students are leveled by what they know and can do, not by age or grade level. Each student progresses through a learning cycle of Learn & Practice, Peer & Teacher Conference, Apply, and Assess. Two schools supported by Matchbook Learning are profiled: Merit Prep in Newark, NJ and Michigan Technical Academy in Detroit.
