Professional Learning Communities at Work®

Professional learning communities (PLCs) are schools that empower educators to work collaboratively in recurring cycles of collective inquiry and action research to achieve better results for the students they serve.

At the heart of the PLC at Work® process are four critical questions that drive the daily actions of every team member:

• What is it we want our students to know and be able to do?
• How will we know if each student has learned it?
• How will we respond when some students do not learn it?
• How will we extend the learning for students who have demonstrated proficiency?

Professional learning communities (PLCs) are schools that empower educators to work collaboratively in recurring cycles of collective inquiry and action research to achieve better results for the students they serve.

RTI—also known as a multitiered system of supports (MTSS)—is a systematic process that helps ensure all students receive the time and resources needed to learn at high levels. Built upon the PLC at Work framework, RTI at Work™ is the best answer we know to Critical Questions 3 and 4.

Assessment Collaborative is the most comprehensive and practical solution for building authentic assessment practices that increase achievement, cultivate hope, and build confidence in all learners. We base our work on six tenets of success.

Schools labeled as low-performing or high-priority struggle with many challenges. We can help your staff engage in work that yields better results. Transform your existing culture into a culture that believes learning for all is required.

Dr. Marzano’s vision for K–12 education is simple: the vast majority of schools can be highly effective in promoting student learning. To show how, he created the Marzano High Reliability Schools framework. This framework, based on 40 years of educational research, defines five progressive levels of performance that a school must master to become a high reliability school—where all students learn the content and skills they need for success in college, careers, and beyond.
