A Study in Innovative Teaching Practices
Feedback from Summit Learning Teachers and School Leaders
Given this national interest in reframing our schools to support new innovative practices within classroom instruction, the experiences of Summit Learning teachers and school leaders provide an interesting model for exploration. In this report, we examine five key tenets of innovation that are part of the Summit Learning model. Our goal with this examination is to inform and inspire new conversations and potential replication so that all schools can improve student learning experiences.
On behalf of Gradient Learning, Project Tomorrow designed and implemented two online surveys in spring 2023 to collect quantitative and qualitative feedback from Summit Learning teachers and school leaders nationwide. This marks the third year we have collected data examining the lived experiences and perceptions of Summit Learning teachers and school leaders about the impact of various innovative practices within their classrooms and schools.
