What if... pulling levers creating the Next Normal?

What if we pulled one, two, or three levers—to create the Next Normal rather than merely react?

  • Summer learning pilot: No doubt this represents a hard problem because of logistical and “systems-level” barriers. But it is possible to create a meaningful first version.

  • Evolving to a 12-month window for scheduling learning: Also a hard problem, but if you create a summer learning pilot, you have created a meaningful first version of this, too.

  • Re-imagining assessment: You can do this right away with little or no disruption to the existing system.

You have the levers to create rather than react.

Will you pull them?
