NAVIGATION NORTH HAS GRASS CLASS ROOTS
Navigation North began as a team of educators and educational resource developers working to re-imagine and re-design:
- How teachers are supported in their practice
- How students learn in and out of class
- How education systems can best support innovation
While much of our work involves implementing systems, resources, and communities of practice on statewide and national levels, we still regularly work directly in schools and classrooms to continuously assess and calibrate our thinking and design with site leaders, teachers, and learners.
