ORGANIZATION MISSION STATEMENTFORM 990, PART I, LINE 1IN THE PAST REPORTING PERIOD, NEW CLASSROOMS HAS BOTH DESIGNED A NEW EDUCATIONAL MODEL, CALLED TEACH TO ONE: MATH, AND IMPLEMENTED THAT PROGRAM IN NINE SCHOOLS ACROSS THREE U.S. CITIES. NEW CLASSROOMS 2012 SCHOOLS: - GRAY ELEMENTARY SCHOOL, CHICAGO, ILLINOIS - SPENCER TECHNOLOGY ACADEMY, CHICAGO, ILLINOIS - HART MIDDLE SCHOOL, WASHINGTON, DC - WILLIAM C MCGINNIS MIDDLE SCHOOL, PERTH AMBOY, NJ - I.S. 228, NEW YORK CITY- BROOKLYN* - J.H.S. 88, NEW YORK CITY- BROOKLYN* - I.S. 381, NEW YORK CITY- BROOKLYN* - I.S. 2, NEW YORK CITY- STATEN ISLAND* - I.S. 49, NEW YORK CITY- STATEN ISLAND* IN ITS INAUGURAL YEAR BUILDING A CENTRAL ORGANIZATION AND A NEW SCHOOL PROGRAM, NEW CLASSROOMS FOCUS WAS LARGELY ON SYSTEM CREATION AND CAPACITY BUILDING. THOSE OBJECTIVES WERE MET AND STUDENTS AT EACH OF THE SCHOOLS LISTED HERE RECEIVED DAILY, PERSONALIZED INSTRUCTION WITH DAILY SCHEDULES BEING GENERATED FOR EACH INDIVIDUAL STUDENT AND TEACHER. WE LOOK FORWARD TO AN EVALUATION OF OUR CURRENT IMPLEMENTATIONS BECOMING AVAILABLE IN THE FUTURE. * NEW YORK CITY DEPARTMENT OF EDUCATIONS SCHOOL OF ONE IS POWERED BY TEACH TO ONE: MATH IN THE NEW YORK CITY SCHOOLS LISTED HERE.
ORGANIZATION MISSION STATEMENTFORM 990, PART III, LINE 1NEARLY 170 YEARS AGO, HORACE MANN SUCCESSFULLY ARGUED FOR UNIVERSAL PUBLIC EDUCATION. THE CLASSROOM HE INTRODUCED, 28 CHILDREN AND ONE TEACHER IN A BOX, BECAME THE STANDARD IN U.S. EDUCATION. SINCE MANNS TIME, AMERICAN INNOVATION HAS PUT PEOPLE ON THE MOON, CREATED AND REINVENTED ENTIRE INDUSTRIES, AND DEVELOPED TECHNOLOGIES THAT HAVE REVOLUTIONIZED HOW WE WORK AND PLAY. YET THE INGENUITY THAT REPEATEDLY TRANSFORMS OUR LIVES HAS BYPASSED THE CLASSROOM. WE STILL HAVE 28 CHILDREN AND ONE TEACHER IN A BOX, NOT BECAUSE IT IS EFFECTIVE, BUT BECAUSE NO ONE HAS STOPPED TO QUESTION IT. U.S. EDUCATION DESPERATELY NEEDS THINKING OUTSIDE THIS BOX. IN THE 30 YEARS SINCE THE PUBLICATION OF A NATION AT RISK, MULTIPLE REFORMS FROM STANDARDS TO ACCOUNTABILITY TO CHOICE HAVE HAD A POSITIVE BUT LIMITED IMPACT. THE TIME IS RIPE TO SUPPLEMENT THESE EFFORTS BY MORE DIRECTLY ADDRESSING THE FUNDAMENTAL PROBLEM IN OUR SYSTEM: EDUCATION IS NOT ONE-SIZE-FITS-ALL. UNLESS WE MAKE INSTRUCTION MORE PERSONAL, THE RIGHT CONTENT AND INSTRUCTIONAL MODEL FOR EACH STUDENT DURING EACH CLASS MEETING, TOO MANY STUDENTS WILL CONTINUE TO FALL BEHIND, GET BORED, DROP OUT, AND NOT LIVE UP TO THEIR POTENTIAL. AND COUNTLESS TIME AND RESOURCES WILL CONTINUE TO BE WASTED. REIMAGINING EDUCATION THROUGH PERSONALIZED INSTRUCTION NEW CLASSROOMS INNOVATION PARTNERS (NEW CLASSROOMS) IS A NONPROFIT ORGANIZATION MADE UP OF LEADING EDUCATORS, OPERATORS, AND TECHNOLOGISTS COMMITTED TO TURNING MANNS MODEL ON ITS HEAD. OUR FOUNDING TEAM INCLUDES MANY LEADERS AND ORIGINAL MEMBERS OF SCHOOL OF ONE, NEW YORK CITYS AWARD-WINNING, PERSONALIZED EDUCATIONAL PROGRAM NAMED ONE OF THE TOP 50 INVENTIONS OF 2009 BY TIME. NEW CLASSROOMS WAS BORN FROM THE BELIEF THAT TODAYS MODEL FOR DELIVERING EDUCATION, ONE TEACHER AND 28 OR SO STUDENTS IN A CLASSROOM, DOES NOT SUFFICIENTLY ACCOUNT FOR EACH STUDENTS NEEDS AND ASSUMES THAT EACH STUDENT ARRIVES ON THE FIRST DAY OF SCHOOL WITH THE SAME ACADEMIC FOUNDATION AND WAY OF LEARNING. FOR A TEACHER, THIS PRESENTS THE NEARLY IMPOSSIBLE CHALLENGE OF TEACHING GRADE-LEVEL CURRICULUM WHILE ALSO MEETING THE NEEDS OF EACH STUDENT. TO ADDRESS THIS CHALLENGE, NEW CLASSROOMS DESIGNS INNOVATIVE INSTRUCTIONAL MODELS THAT REIMAGINE THE ROLE OF EDUCATORS, THE USE OF TIME, THE CONFIGURATION OF PHYSICAL SPACE, AND THE USE OF DATA AND TECHNOLOGY TO BETTER MEET THE NEEDS OF EACH STUDENT. OUR FIRST SUCH MODEL WAS DESIGNED AND FIRST IMPLEMENTED THIS PERIOD, IT IS CALLED TEACH TO ONE: MATH. WE THEN COLLABORATE DIRECTLY WITH EDUCATORS TO SUPPORT THE IMPLEMENTATION OF THESE MODELS. TEACH TO ONE INCORPORATES SEVERAL FEATURES THAT DIFFERENTIATE IT FROM TRADITIONAL CLASS INSTRUCTION. THE PROGRAM PROVIDES EACH STUDENT WITH AN INDIVIDUALIZED CURRICULUM BASED ON HIS OR HER OWN NEEDS. BY AGGREGATING CONTENT FROM A MULTITUDE OF PROVIDERS, LESSONS ARE REDELIVERED TO STUDENTS THROUGH A VARIETY OF LEARNING MODALITIES, SUCH AS LIVE INSTRUCTION, COLLABORATIVE LEARNING, VIRTUAL LIVE INSTRUCTION, AND INDEPENDENT LEARNING. THIS ALLOWS EDUCATORS TO SIMULTANEOUSLY DELIVER INSTRUCTION ON MULTIPLE SKILLS AND HELP TO ENSURE THAT STUDENTS ARE MORE ENGAGED IN ALL ASPECTS OF THE LEARNING PROCESS.
PROGRAM SERVICE STATEMENTFORM 990, PART III, LINE 4ATRADITIONAL TEACHER-LED CLASS INSTRUCTION IS JUST ONE MODALITY, OR INSTRUCTIONAL APPROACH. TEACH TO ONE: MATH USES A VARIETY OF MODALITIES, INCLUDING TEACHER-LED INSTRUCTION, STUDENT COLLABORATION, SOFTWARE, AND VIRTUAL INSTRUCTORS, TO PERSONALIZE INSTRUCTION. A COMPLEX SET OF ALGORITHMS, BASED ON EACH STUDENTS UNDERSTANDING AT THE END OF THE PREVIOUS LESSON, CREATES A CUSTOMIZED SCHEDULE FOR THE FOLLOWING DAY. THIS SCHEDULE, IN TURN, DRIVES HOW TEACHERS ALLOCATE THEIR TIME SO EACH TEACHER CAN BETTER LEVERAGE HIS OR HER TIME AND EXPERTISE. THE RESULT: EACH STUDENT MOVES THROUGH A RICH, INDIVIDUALIZED LEARNING EXPERIENCE AT HIS OR HER OWN PACE. HOW IT WORKS IMPLEMENTATION OF TEACH TO ONE: MATH BEGINS WITH THE TEACH TO ONE: MATH STAFF COLLABORATING WITH TEACHERS TO UNDERSTAND HOW THEY CAN COLLECTIVELY SUPPORT STUDENT INSTRUCTION IN OUR MODEL. TEACHERS RECEIVE EXTENSIVE PROFESSIONAL DEVELOPMENT ON MANY OF THE ACADEMIC, OPERATIONAL, AND TECHNICAL ASPECTS OF THE PROGRAM, WHICH CONTINUE THROUGHOUT THE SCHOOL YEAR. DURING THE FIRST WEEKS OF THE PROGRAM, STUDENTS LEARN ABOUT HOW TEACH TO ONE: MATH WORKS AND EXPERIENCE DIFFERENT ASPECTS OF THE PROGRAM. EACH STUDENT ALSO TAKES A DIAGNOSTIC ASSESSMENT TO IDENTIFY THE LIBRARY OF SKILLS HE OR SHE CAN LEARN DURING THE SCHOOL YEAR. FOR THE REST OF THE SCHOOL YEAR, STUDENTS TIME IS ORGANIZED INTO TWO-WEEK PERIODS, CALLED ROUNDS. FOR EACH ROUND, TEACH TO ONE: MATH SELECTS A COHESIVE SET OF SKILLS FROM EACH STUDENTS PERSONALIZED LIBRARY. THE STUDENT WILL FOCUS ON THOSE SKILLS, KNOWN AS THE STUDENTS PLAYLIST, THROUGHOUT THE TWO- WEEK ROUND. DURING A ROUND, EACH STUDENT ENGAGES IN THREE DIFFERENT TYPES OF LEARNING SESSIONS TO MASTER THE SKILLS IN HIS OR HER PLAYLIST: (1) PICK-UP SESSIONS, WHERE STUDENTS LEARN AND PRACTICE DISCRETE BUT RELATED ACADEMIC SKILLS THROUGH A VARIETY OF SINGLE-SESSION LIVE, COLLABORATIVE, AND ONLINE APPROACHES. (2) TASK SESSIONS, WHERE STUDENTS APPLY MULTIPLE SKILLS FROM THEIR PLAYLIST IN REAL-WORLD CONTEXTS TO BUILD A DEEPER CONCEPTUAL UNDERSTANDING OF MATHEMATICS AND WHICH TAKE PLACE OVER MULTIPLE DAYS. (3) MATH ADVISORY SESSIONS, WHERE STUDENTS HAVE THE CHANCE TO FOCUS ON GOAL SETTING, RELATIONSHIP BUILDING, PERSISTENCE, AND GENERAL MATHEMATICS PRINCIPLES SUCH AS PROBLEM SOLVING OR MATH VOCABULARY THAT CUT ACROSS MULTIPLE SKILLS AND STANDARDS. THROUGH THIS PROCESS, STUDENTS LEARN TO TAKE MORE RESPONSIBILITY FOR THEIR LEARNING. THEY EACH SET PERSONAL GOALS AND ARE GIVEN THE TOOLS TO CONTINUALLY MEASURE THEIR PROGRESS AND ACCELERATE THEIR OWN LEARNING. ALONG THE WAY, THEY ARE ABLE TO MAKE CONNECTIONS BETWEEN WHAT THEY LEARN AT SCHOOL AND AT HOME, AS WELL AS HOW THE VARIOUS MATHEMATICAL SKILLS AND CONCEPTS RELATE TO THE WORLD AROUND THEM.
