Leadership Learning: Leading PLCs Through the Science of Learning (90 Minute Session)
Wednesday July 22, 2026 10:45am - 12:15pm EDT
What happens when PLC conversations focus on how students learn rather than simply what teachers teach? We will explore how Science of Learning principles, including cognitive load theory and learning task design, can strengthen PLC discussions and maximize Tier 1 instruction. Through examples from practice, collaborative discussion, and application, leaders will examine questions that help teams analyze learning experiences. Participants will leave with practical strategies they can use to strengthen PLC conversations and support improved student outcomes.
