How the MARIO Framework is enriching learning support programs around the world
The MARIO Framework is now being used to improve learning outcomes in over 15 different countries around the world. We are educators that believe there is a better way to learn. To this end, we have built first-class professional learning courses and software that empower and connect special education students, teachers, parents, and school leaders to a degree simply not possible before. We do this by helping educators create evidence-based one-to-one learning conversations and personalized learning experiences that privilege student voice. Alongside this, we reduce planning time, increase teacher efficacy, and make data collection and reflection something that is meaningfully embedded into the learning process. We maximize faculty resources to produce improved learning outcomes now and self-directed learners in the future. Learn what the MARIO Framework is and how it addresses some of the most important and challenging issues in Special Education. In addition to getting answers to questions you might have, you'll leave this webinar with some immediate ideas for improving learning support services at your school.

How one-to-one learning conversations between educators and students can transform learning
Join Graeme Scott and Philip Bowman as they share what makes the MARIO Framework so special. Participants will have access to real one-to-one learning conversations and will better understand how flexibly structured and focused one-to-one learning conversations are the key to sustainable personalized learning experiences in learning support scenarios.
Philip Bowman is starting his eleventh year teaching at International School Bangkok and has been a special educator for over fifteen years. He founded the MARIO Framework to help educators and schools meaningfully address the fundamental issues neurodiverse learners are faced with, rather than a shallow and reactive approach to learning support. Renowned UDL expert Dr. Katie Novak has co-authored a study (currently in peer-review) that measures the efficacy of the flexibly structured one-to-one learning conversations at the heart of the MARIO Framework at .91.
Graeme Scott has over 35 years of experience in education, with 24 years in leadership positions in the UK, Hong Kong, The Netherlands, Thailand and the United Arab Emirates. He is married to Ali, a school Inclusion Leader, and they have three children.
In 2018 Graeme became Founding Director of Fairgreen International School, Dubai - the Middle East's first fully sustainable school, now offering all four programmes of the International Baccalaureate. Prior to this he was Principal of the International School of The Hague for seven years and Deputy Head of School at the International School Bangkok for six years. He has also been Head of a UK Primary School, rated ‘outstanding’ by Ofsted.
