This session of the radio show shares my conversation with Franklin School Superintendent Lucas Giguere, Dr Tina Rogers, Assistant Superintendent for Teaching & Learning; Eric Stark, Director of Curriculum STEM; and Dr Tim Frazier, Director of Curriculum ELA & SS. We had our conversation in person at FPS Central Offices on Wednesday, December 13, 2023.
At a high level our topics were:
- Instructional design
- Emphasis on professional learning
- Universal design for learning
- Capturing & analyzing the Data
- MCAS just one data point, use of summative & formative
- Curriculum review program
The recording runs about 38 minutes so let’s listen to our conversation on teaching and learning in the Franklin School District.
