A Seat At The Table: Using Learning Labs to Transform Systems with Collective Agency
Date: April 1, 2025
Time: 12 (PT)/ 3 (ET)
The Learning Lab intervention provides a research-based process to bring together local stakeholders and facilitate authentic participation in problem-solving around a system producing inequitable outcomes for students from diverse backgrounds. The Learning Lab also helps schools create and sustain productive partnerships among local stakeholders, which in turn helps renovate school- and classroom-level climate/culture systems. This session will inform participants of the remarkable impact experienced by stakeholders engaged in Learning Labs, discuss the development from research to implementation, and highlight lessons learned.
