OHVA Learning Coach Academy 25-26

Become an awesome Learning Coach!

The Learning Coach Academy 'Growing to Guide:'

• Provides modules to complete online to inform and prepare you about all things OHVA. Start with any module that would be helpful to you throughout the school year.
• Shares recorded videos and online sessions on helpful topics for busy Learning Coaches - new and/or veteran LC's.
• Offers live sessions for mental health and other topics.
• Gives recognition for our hard-working Learning Coaches. Who doesn't like a surprise in the mail? Let us celebrate your learning with you, just as your student grows this year, too.

We want to see students learning!

What does it mean to have a year of growth in each school year? It means the student makes steady progress in learning, measured by formative assessment and summative assessment.

• Formative assessment takes place on a continuous basis within the lessons and live class sessions.
• Summative assessment takes place once or twice per year.

Like any Ohio public school, we have the opportunity to show what we know and so we participate in both kinds of assessment. We are a public, online, charter school.

• Depending on the student's grade level, fall formative or summative testing may occur.
• Our End of Year course summative assessments may happen fall and spring as well, for HS students.
• Our big summative assessments are usually in the spring.

Each of these are one of the nine intelligences students may see life through or learn through!

The learning coach intelligences may differ from the student! We may enter into the LC role thinking our student learns the way we learn. In fact, we need to see through their eyes to help them learn in their own way, style, speed, and type with their primary intelligence, and understand our own primary intelligence (PI).

Combining paper and online lessons with hands-on learning completes the learning in the student's experience.

Here are some types of learning that help understanding and rigor.

Here are examples of active learning for you!

Here is the view on Bloom's Taxonomy - a way of showing how learning becomes more complex.
