Why Students Should Take the Lead in Parent-Teacher Conferences
Mia Christopher The following is an excerpt from “Deeper Learning How Eight Innovative Public Schools Are Transforming Education in the Twenty-First Century,” by Monica R. Martinez and Dennis McGrath. A particularly vivid example of putting students in the driver’s seat of their own education is the way they handle what traditional schools refer to as parent-teacher conferences. At these time-honored encounters, it’s not uncommon for students to stay home while the adults discuss their progress or lack thereof. The specific dynamics of these conferences vary widely. At King Middle School, the twice-yearly student-led conferences are “one of the most important things we do to have students own their own learning,” says Peter Hill, who helps prepare kids in his advisory class, or crew, for their meetings. Instead, Hill encourages students to reflect on the connection between the effort they have made and the quality of their work. “I always tell them, ‘Own what you got,’ ” Martin says.
