The Aurora Institute Symposium is the field’s largest gathering of education innovators working to transform K-12 education. You’ll find a big tent of attendees from across the education innovation space who are pushing for learning to happen outside of traditional school walls, and to be more personalized, competency-based, and future-focused.
The 70+ sessions and five keynotes will showcase the field’s brightest ideas and provide an inside look at cutting-edge approaches, strategies, and guidance. The Symposium inspires attendees, equips them with new knowledge and best practices, and sparks action by inspiring leaders to implement new learning designs. Session strands include: Shifting to Comptency-Based Education; Modernizing Professional Learning; Enabling Anytime/Anywhere Learning; Transforming Education Systems; Whole Child Personalized Learning; Elevating Diversity, Equity, Inclusion and Antiracism; Redesigning/Creating New Learning Models; and more.
Attendees are invited to participate in our book club style breakout sessions that will be facilitated by authors who are leaders in the field. To participate, feel free to purchase and read one of the books below that most interest you. We look forward to hearing your reflections and questions. This year’s book clubs include:
