Leaders of Their Own Learning
From EL Education comes a proven approach to student assessment Leaders of Their Own Learning offers a new way of thinking about assessment based on the celebrated work of EL Education schools across the country. Student-Engaged Assessment is not a single practice but an approach to teaching and learning that equips and compels students to understand goals for their learning and growth, track their progress toward those goals, and take responsibility for reaching them. This requires a set of interrelated strategies and structures and a whole-school culture in which students are given the respect and responsibility to be meaningfully engaged in their own learning. Includes everything teachers...

Transformational Literacy
Engage, challenge, and inspire students with work that matters Transformational Literacy, written by a team from EL Education, helps teachers leverage the Common Core instructional shifts—building knowledge through content-rich nonfiction, reading for and writing with evidence, and regular practice with complex text—to engage students in work that matters. Worthy texts and worthy tasks help students see the connection between their hard work as readers and writers and their capacity to contribute to stronger communities and a better world. The stories, examples, and resources that permeate Transformational Literacy come primarily from the more than 150 EL Education schools around the cou...
Learning That Lasts
A practical guide to deeper instruction—a framework for challenging, engaging, and empowering students of all ages For schools to meet ambitious new standards and prepare all students for college, careers, and life, research has shown unequivocally that nothing is more important that the quality of daily instruction. Learning That Lasts presents a new vision for classroom instruction that sharpens and deepens the quality of lessons in all subject areas. It is the opposite of a 'teacher-proof' solution. Instead, it is predicated on a model of instruction that honors teachers as creative and expert planners of learning experiences for their students and who wish to continuously grow in their...

Roots
This anthology, first published in 2000, explores EL Education's roots in the educational philosophy of Kurt Hahn. Hahn, the founder of Outward Bound, started two schools and inspired many other educational initiatives. Roots includes an excellent essay on Hahn's educational thought, The Only Mountain Worth Climbing, by Thomas James, and the transcript of a speech on the educational contributions of Outward Bound, The Missing Dimension, by Paul Ylvisaker. This edition, published in 2021, includes a new foreword by Sydney Chaffee, a teacher at Codman Academy in Boston and the 2017 National Teacher of the Year.

Journal of Character Education
The Journal of Character Education is the leading source of cutting-edge knowledge about character education research, theory, practice, and opinion. We define character education broadly to encompass all educational approaches designed to nurture students’ knowledge, motivation, skills, and behavior concerning all four aspects of character: moral, performance, civic, and intellectual. The Journal publishes manuscripts that report research relevant to character education, conceptual articles, and book reviews that provide theoretical, historical, and philosophical perspectives on the field of character education as it is broadly defined above. The Journal is also interested in practical articles about implementation and specific programs, and informed opinion statements.
Core Practices
This edition of Core Practices, like the two previous editions (2003, 2011), provides a comprehensive overview of the EL Education model, which can be used as a planning and implementation guide for partners implementing all or part of the EL Education model (including literacy partners). This book represents 25 years o
We Are Crew
Crew is two things. It is a schoolwide culture that supports social and emotional wellness, character development, and academic and life success for students and staff. It is also a unique and transformational meeting structure for secondary school advisories, elementary school morning and closing circles, and for staff collaboration. We Are Crew provides guidance for bringing Crew to your school or district and highlights numerous examples from successful schools that have used Crew to foster student and staff success for more than 25 years. We Are Crew is paired with an online toolkit of resources and a suite of open-source videos.
