How Are We Doing?

Next Steps CPS rolled out a Blended Learning environment for Math based on the VOISE

model in 6 elementary schools.

VOISE will pilot extended learning enrichment programs in order to increase college readiness through AP and college prep courses.

VOISE will lead the training and development for online/digital instruction for 24 high schools within CPS.

Senior year plan for students to have flexible schedule including classes that meet outside the walls of VOISE which will also include students taking college courses online through a partnership with Chicago City Colleges.

A Look Inside a Hybrid School

How Does It Work?

Expert, specially trained virtual teachers work with students from a distance

in partnership with the face-to-face teacher

The face-to-face teacher works with

students individually and in small groups,

guided by ongoing assessment.

Students Surrounded by Support for Success

The proven-effective online curriculum comes with a

powerful Learning Management System.

Assessment drives instruction throughout the school day, online and face-to-face

The LMS Makes Teaching Transparent

Elevating Teaching into a White Collar Profession

Teachers (like doctors) focus on what only they can do: • Instruction / guided practice• Critical thinking skills• Prescribing student’s individual learning plan

Technology• Core skills reinforcement• Adaptive content

Tutors • Tutors (like nurses) manage process and lower-order tasks

Concept OverviewNovember 15, 2010

• One teacher

• One classroom

• One pace

• One curriculum

• Totally varied student needs

Traditional Math Class

What if school looked like a ski mountain?

• 91 Trails

• 4 Levels of Difficulty

• 3 terrain parks

• 21 lifts

• Independent, small group, and large group learning

But Doctor, I sprained my ankle.

I’m sorry, but I was already scheduled to listen to your lung function.

School of One FIRST looks at student needs and preferences, and THEN schedules student classes.

four modalities

School of One is a middle school math program (not a school) that works with schools to put multiple learning modalities into the same learning environment in order to personalize instruction around student needs.

Worksheet

Students take lessons in different modalities, and their daily Playlist Update quiz determines their possible next day lessons (e.g. Brian stays on skill, goes on to Skill 13, or goes on to Skill 25)

How does School of One work?

Students are given diagnostics to determine a student profile of academic needs and preferences called a Playlist

Scheduling software recommends the best next skill, modality of instruction for that skill group, best lesson in that modality (e.g. online with Study Island), location, and teacher, based in part on the need to create viable groups

Students and teachers get new schedules for the next day
