Workshop - So….How Do We Actually Transform Student Learning?
Saturday July 4, 2026 9:45am - 11:15am PDT
Imagine High - Room 221
Transforming student learning does not happen by accident. It happens when educators and leaders align around a clear vision and plan for teaching and learning and intentionally design the conditions to bring it to life. This Deep Dive is for teacher leaders, system leaders, and/or district teams who want to move beyond isolated initiatives toward transformative change of learning in classrooms, schools, and districts.

Participants will develop an aspirational vision for change, and apply research on leading change to develop a concrete theory of action to make it happen. Through hands-on learning, dialogue, and inquiry, you will examine systems thinking, research on effective change, and practical ways to align pedagogy, professional learning, and improvement efforts.

You will leave with concrete tools and artifacts, including a draft theory of action, a clear pedagogical focus for change, and an Observable Impact Model to guide evidence collection and next steps. Attending with a team is strongly encouraged to strengthen shared leadership and coherence.
