By Becoming A Certified Agile Classroom Teacher, You Will Be Able To:

• Create a paradigm shift in how you look at learning so that it reinvigorates your passion for teaching & learning
• Learn a simpler, lighter, and more empowering way to run student projects
• Gain a sense of pride in seeing your students become self-directed learners
• Embrace newfound freedom to decide how to teach and learn while still aligning to curriculum and standards
• Deeply integrate 21st Century Skills so students can thrive in academics, life, and career
• Practice higher social and emotional intelligence throughout all learning so students become constructive leaders and global citizens.
• Grow your students’ capacity to focus, make good decisions, collaborate, and adapt.
• As you stick with it, the classroom starts to manage itself, freeing up your time so that you can connect to each student at a deeper level.

When it comes to implementing new strategies in the classroom, I know you have fears…

...You’re afraid that if you lose control, the classroom will descend into chaos

...Or maybe you’re afraid that your students will fall behind on their learning goals

...And maybe you’re afraid it won’t get the parent and faculty support you’ll need

But as an Agile Educator, here’s what you will GAIN:

• Confidence in your students’ ability to self-manage and collaborate
• The ability to scaffold self-direction and collaboration incrementally so that your students are progressing without the risk of giving full control at once
• The freedom to connect with each student at a deeper level because you no longer have to micromanage the classroom and each student.
