Conferences & Events

The 2017 KnowledgeWorks Experience Conference: Making Dreams Come True will
be in Orlando, Florida, from February 27-28, 2017. With a focus on
personalizing, collaborating and learning, educators, school leaders and
coaches, higher education leaders and school partners from across the country
will gather to learn and share multiple pathways for adults and students to
collaborate to make dreams come true for young people, their families and
communities.

About the Conference:
Whether we’re helping a student become the first in their family to attain
higher education, make connections between classroom topics and real life or
proceed through course material at a pace that is right for them, the goal is
the same. We want students to have brighter futures where their dreams become
reality.

In addition to three nationally-known speakers, who will be announced soon,
we will be hosting sessions throughout this two-day event that will provide
participants with strategies they can take home and put to use immediately
following the conference. The sessions fall into the following categories:

•       Curriculum Leadership and Design for Personalization
•       Systems and Structures for Personalization
•       Climate, Culture and Student Engagement in the Classroom and the
Community
•       Educator Effectiveness
