LINKS: Bob Pearlman

Bob Pearlman is a strategy consultant for education reform. He is the former executive director of the 21st Century Education Initiative at Joint Venture-Silicon Valley Network; bobpearlman@mindspring.com;

www.bobpearlman.org.

Bob has written helpful articles about innovations in education

See his website for links to other articles

Key points from Bob's article:

-- small size of the schools

-- Personalization with advisory groups

-- a teacher/advisor works with the same 12–20 students for years

At these innovative high schools, students are deeply engaged in their learning and held responsible for their own education. The small size of the schools means that adults and students get to know one another well. Personalization is further enhanced by advisory groups, in which a teacher/ advisor works with the same 12–20 students, their parents, and their mentors for the length of the students' stay at the school.

We are called the Center for Projects, Presentations, Portfolios and Personalization... Then we realized that (1) "personalizing" should come first and that (2) there needs to be a procedure to explain what PERSONALIZING means. If every student has a Personal Learning Plan that is unique to that student (not a cookie cutter set of boxes that every student must fill in), then that's a first step to personalizing the experience of high school for each student.
