Are you ready to revolutionize the way students learn? ?? Self-paced, mastery-based learning is the key to unlocking a world of fun and creativity in the classroom. ?? By allowing students to progress at their own pace and truly master a concept before moving on, we're giving them the power to take ownership of their learning journey. ?? Sometimes educators who use different models and curricula ask us how they can use the research-backed best practices of the Modern Classrooms model in conjunction with their existing tools. For example, educators who use project-based learning via programs always want to know if it's worth doing the work to combine approaches.? To that, we ask - don't all students benefit from additional scaffolding? Imagine a world where students are able to apply their newfound knowledge and skills to real-world projects that excite and inspire them. With self-paced, mastery-based learning, students have the time and flexibility to dive deep into a project, master the necessary skills, and produce incredible, high-quality work. And while they do it, their milestones are broken down into smaller tasks that help them build the executive functioning skills they need to be successful in your class, and beyond.? This approach not only supports successful project-based learning, but it also provides essential supports for your neuro-spicy students and those who struggle with planning and execution. And when students are having fun and feeling confident in their abilities, the sky's the limit for what they can achieve.?
