Principles:

1. Aptitudes and instructional treatments interact in complex patterns and
are influenced by task and situation variables.

2. Highly structured instructional environments tend to be most successful with
students of lower ability; conversely, low structure environments may result in
better learning for high ability students.

3. Anxious or conforming students tend to learn better in highly structured
instructional environments; non-anxious or independent students tend to prefer
low structure.

What is EduCon 2.1?

EduCon 2.1 is both a conversation and a conference.

And it is not a technology conference. It is an education conference. It is, hopefully, an innovation conference where we can come together, both in person and virtually, to discuss the future of schools. Every session will be an opportunity to discuss and debate ideas -- from the very practical to the big dreams.
