From Dr. Beth Holland:
At The Learning Accelerator, we have partnered with Gradient Learning to understand what leadership conditions and structures best support how classrooms implement their digital reflection tool, Along – a resource that aims to build meaningful 1:1 teacher-student connections through the exchange of video, audio, and text messages. (Discover more about how Along works here.)
The Opportunity: We are seeking schools who are interested in piloting Along for at least 12 weeks starting in January or early February at no cost to them. Schools can pilot Along in any classroom in grades 4-12. As a result of participation, schools will receive:
-
Training and Implementation Support: Along staff will provide trainings, resources, and other supports.
-
Stipends: Teachers, school leaders, and coordinators (i.e., tech department staff) who participate in the pilot will receive stipends.
Pilot Expectations:
Schools will have the opportunity to continue to use Along for free after the end of the pilot. The Learning Accelerator will make all findings freely and publicly available.
We are hoping that you could please share this opportunity with ATLIS members before the end of the year. Please let us know if you have any questions. We look forward to hearing from you soon.
