In this episode we are speaking with Christy Kingham, coordinator of both the mastery based grading initiative and project based learning facilitation at The Young Women’s Leadership School in Astoria, NY. TYWLS is a learner-centered public high school in the New York City Department of Education.
During our conversation, we learned what learner-centered means at TYWLS and how leaders create the space and time for all stakeholders to realize the vision of the school through project-based learning and learning intensives.
As a result of our conversation, we are thinking about this question:
- What learner-centered aspects of TYWLS might you apply in your school or district?
