5. Establish Simple Guiding Principles<\/h2>\n

Giving students freedom to make their own decisions isn\u2019t without its pitfalls. Some may feel uncomfortable with autonomy and could make a poor decision in the process. Rather than giving them complete freedom, providing guiding principles can offer direction without quashing independence. These principles are based on values and skills rather than behaviors. Simplifying guidelines communicates trust and encourages responsibility.<\/p>\n

Methods<\/h3>\n

Eliminate detailed rules<\/strong> that communicate distrust to learners.<\/p>\n

Establish core values<\/strong> to guide learners, teachers and leaders every day.<\/p>\n

Imbue values<\/strong> in every part of experience like space, curriculum and how you communicate with students.<\/p>\n

Launch Pad: Try these Personalized Learning activities today<\/h3>\n

Build Agreement and a Collective Vision <\/strong>
\nInvite the school community of leaders, teachers, students and parents to come together to establish guiding principles for the building or district.<\/p>\n

Create a Culture of Accountability<\/strong>
\nEncourage everyone involved to hold each other accountable to living by the guiding principles.<\/p>\n

Communicate with Parents and Community<\/strong>
\nShare these principles with parents and community members so they understand behavior expectations for students.<\/p>\n
