When we were preparing to launch the Association for Academic Leaders, we did our homework. In surveys and interviews, we asked Academic Leaders what they needed in order to do their jobs well.
We heard clearly that it’s too easy to get swept into the day-to-day work. Academic Leaders want to have easy access to big ideas and the research that supports change.
This week, we’re launching a new resource we expect to build annually. Magazines and newspapers do their year in review pieces in December, collating the reporting, review, and, think pieces that have made an impact. Looking back in December, however, doesn’t make sense for educators. That’s why we’re rolling out Marking the Moment 2022, a slide deck and resource list that brings together research and analysis to tell the story of the academic year we’re finishing in May. This project is designed to provide a conceptual framework that allows Academic Leaders to see trends and data in the context of the narrative of the school year, and to present the sources that allow you to dig deeper. When you download the deck, you’ll see explorations of topics including technology, teacher retention, standardized testing, and student mental health. Each of these connects you to key data points and research that you can use to explore the issue with teammates, teachers, and families, and takeaways that can help you focus your questions and find answers. To dive in, start by downloading the PDF of our slide deck by filling out the form below, as well as our Sources document. Join us on Wednesday, June 1 to talk about the stories we’re sharing. We hope that this resource spurs conversations, shifts perspectives, and incites change. It’s been a year–and these stories matter. Download your copy of Marking the Moment: 2022
