Traditional, one-lesson-at-a-time instruction often fails to meet many learners’ needs. In this talk, Modern Classrooms Project co-founder explains how the techniques he developed while teaching at Leysin American School helped him keep every student appropriately challenged and supported every day – and how that same approach has now empowered thousands of educators worldwide. He’ll also provide a sneak peek into his upcoming book, Meet Every Learner’s Needs.
