ENVISION: Learning Outcomes

School Program

Bring clarity, alignment, and direction to your school or school network through a uniquely crafted developmental learning outcomes framework that draws on the best of standards, competencies, and the research on learning.

You're ready to update your learning outcomes.
We're here to help.

Let's bring together the best of standards, competencies, and the research on learning to build a coherent, developmental learning outcomes framework that reflects the unique vision and wisdom of your community. And let's make sure the framework is accessible, promotes coherence, and easy for teacher and students to use on the daily.

Does any of this resonate with where you currently are?

*Our faculty feel pressed to cover subject area content, but we know transferable skills are also so important

*We're currently using nationally-valued standard frameworks, but they're difficult to work with

*We could really benefit from prioritized, research-informed learning outcomes that clarify our vision, and give us the tools to design and measure learning in coherent, vertically aligned ways.

If yes, do these program outcomes resonate with you, too?

1. COHERENCE: Our faculty are designing and measuring learning from a shared, research-informed framework for preK-12 learning that defines the learning that matters most to our community.

2. VISIBLE, MEASURABLE GROWTH: Our students are able to demonstrate growth along a stable learning progression, no matter which grade level, subject area, or learning context they are in.

Yes? Then let's get started.

Testimonials

FROM THE FIELD

If I were starting a competency-based school or program, Sydney Schaef is the first person I would call.

I will never forget traveling throughout Idaho to visit schools several years ago after the state launched their new Mastery Learning initiative. I couldn't believe the depth of conversations we were having, and I couldn't believe the acceleration of their design and implementation efforts. When I asked, "Where did you learn this?" Everyone I spoke to replied the same: "Sydney!"

I've watched her work over the years–from early startup in Philadelphia alongside Building 21, to providing leadership TA for school leaders and state leaders alike while at reDesign. She has real expertise and knows what it's like to be shoulder-to-shoulder in the work.

TESTIMONIALS

Sydney made all the difference for our faculty as we opened our competency-based high school. 

Sydney has an extraordinary ability to connect with teachers from diverse backgrounds and specialties. Sydney brought a wealth of knowledge, drawn from her background and research. But more than that, she brought her full self to every workshop – whether online or in person. She listened deeply, and scaffolded training to suite our distinct school culture and vision.

Sydney’s charisma, brilliance, and unwavering commitment to equity and student agency shone through in every interaction. She is detail-oriented and an amazing multitasker. She continually updated our documents and slide decks in real time, refining and reflecting our ideas back to us with precision and clarity.

Sydney has been a sincere partner with us in our journey to CBE. She aligned with our values and we are all the better for the opportunity to work with her.
