STEM teachers begin to study Standards Based Learning
At STEM School Highlands Ranch, Michelle Vitale’s 9th grade english class is doing a peer review workshop as part of an assignment where they are writing a short story. At the same time, Vitale is teaching them how Standards Based Learning (SBL) will play into the assignment. With SBL, traditional grading is adapted to a model where students are better able to track their progress.
