Tri-Creek School Corporation has been on a 5 year journey to transform learning in a small rural community outside of Chicago. Join us as we discuss how we've taken a dream of creating learning opportunities for students and teachers and built it into a program that incorporates project-based learning, 1 to 1 technology, shared leadership, innovative teaching and learning, and student agency. We'll discuss the headaches, roadblocks, and failures that it takes to get to where you want to be while sharing some of the successes of our students and faculty and tips for how you can foster growth in your own programs.
