Our Philosophy

WE do not come in and fix your problems and leave. We know that is not an effective way to assure long term learning and change. We build your capacity to sustainably address your needs with the team you have on board. We walk beside your faculty and provide the tools, strategies and practice they need to construct effective flexible resilient learning environments.  At the end of our time together, your faculty will have the capability and competence to be flexible and effective in a variety of learning environments.

We know that learning happens in community. We support your faculty as they become a community of learners. We mentor and model best practices for mentoring. We encourage the faculty to mentor each other as we all move through this journey together.

We incorporate compassion as a critical component of our philosophy. Change is hard and we believe compassion is the key to making change smoother and more effective. These are changing times and the changes are happening fast. We have to be compassionate with one another in order to be effective and build community. 

Communication is one of the major keys to learning. We believe that no matter what learning environment you are in, your ability to communicate effectively, frequently and in response to your student's needs,  will be the key to your student's success. We also believe that student's need to have a variety of ways of communicating what they know and what they are learning. 

Collaboration is the foundation of what we bring to our relationship with you. We know that your faculty is very competent in their field and they personally. know and understand your students needs.  We work together with your faculty to share the skills and pedagogy needed to individualize the learning environment to meet the needs of your students whether at a distance, a blended environment or face to face.
