Dear OESIS Participant, I am pleased to welcome you to OESIS in Marina del Rey, the first-ever Online Education Symposium for Independent Schools. Over the next two days, you have an unprecedented opportunity to engage in a dialogue of critical importance to independent schools today. A wide range of thought leaders and other educators have prepared keynote presentations and working sessions addressing key challenges and opportunities impacting our schools. As youll learn from those on the front line, many independent schools have begun to unlock the vast potential that online learning holds; they have embraced the disruptive innovation that our Friday Keynote Speaker Michael Horn has written about. Yet even these early adopters face tough obstacles financial, cultural, structural, and pedagogical. We trust that youll find ample opportunity to question, to learn, to network, to strategize, and to understand better what you and your school need to manage successfully in these exciting times. We welcome your input on topics, speakers, and locations for future OESIS events. Thank you for being part of these important conversations. Best wishes, Jeff Bradley OESIS Organizer; Partner, Educators Collaborative oesis@educatorscollaborative.com

A Financial and Strategic Context for Formulating a Strategic Plan for Online Learning (BAYVIEW) Sanje Ratnavale, Co-Head of School of the Cohort School Paul Slocombe, Head of School of the Laguna Blanca School NAIS has stated that the rapidly evolving online learning market demands that independent schools consider new paradigms in their student recruitment and retention efforts. School leaders should include a market analysis of their schools position in the online learning market as an essential part of their strategic planning efforts.(NAIS task force September 2011). In this presentation we will look at providing a context for this recommendation by looking at the size and dynamics of the market. We examine how the public and charter schools have up until now provided the leadership in this sector. We discuss the rationale behind the entrance of new players into the private school operation business, from colleges downward integrating, to textbook publishers and software companies horizontally competing, to consortiums and for-profits building their own market strategies. We examine the numbers behind the business models. We break down how individual courses are priced and what is driving the different high and low ends of the range. And finally we provide our vision for what are likely to be the emerging models that dictate and dominate the private online market in the future and the opportunities that exist for the nimble. 8

Questions and answers equally welcome. B1 Blended Learning: What It Is and Where To Start (BAYVIEW) Heather Staker, Senior Research Fellow at the Innosight Institute In this presentation, Heather Staker will discuss the recent surge of blended-learning programs across K-12 schools. She will provide an overview of the models that are gaining traction in the private school, charter, and public school worlds. She will also discuss how blended learning is transforming education by redefining opportunities for students, teachers, school leaders, and new entrants. The presentation will address cases in which blended learning is dramatically improving student outcomes, increasing teacher satisfaction, and driving operational efficiency, and contrast that to other cases where blended learning is doing little to transform the traditional paradigm. B2 The Challenges of Course Development, from Curriculum Design to Student Assessment (SIERRA II) Ruth Rominger, Director of Research at the Monterey Institute for Technology and Education The Monterey Institute (MITE) has received significant funding for course development including a $5 million grant from the Bill and Melinda Gates Foundation to redesign a Math curriculum. Ruth will examine in this presentation the challenges faced in the development of the Algebra 1 curriculum and will also discuss the different aspects of course development, including curriculum design, the mixture of online and offline, including content, the differing types of assessments to be chosen, the costs involved, and the kind of recorded presenters that work and do not work.

Constructing Community Online: Building Relationships and Global Understanding by Tearing Down Classroom Walls (SIERRA II) Mike Gwaltney, Instructor, Online School for Girls, Oregon Episcopal School Online education offers an opportunity for students to interact with each other and with communities around the world.Yet too many courses are focused on content-acquisition only, or are built within the walls of Learning Management Systems. What is the value of the online proposition if the students learning experience is spent in isolation? Is it possible to provide a learning environment that is both safe and effective, while promoting interaction with people around the world? In this high-energy presentation of practical solutions, learn how an experienced online instructor builds community within a course as well as among a worldwide network of learners to foster students understanding of regional and global differences. c2 A Conversation with Ruth Rominger (PROMENADE) A Town-Hall format discussion on course development from design, to delivery, to assessment.

c3 Repurposing the Wheel: Marrying the Best of the Old to the Possibility of the New (SIERRA I) Barb Brueggemann-Hawkins, George Washington University Online High School, Head of School Cassi Brownlow, GWUOHS Lead English Teacher Many brick-and-mortar people, parents included, worry that embracing an online education means sacrificing key elements that make an independent private school special; community, socialization with peers, face-to-face interaction with faculty, etc. The George Washington University Online High Schools focus is to preserve the best of what brick-and-mortar schools offer and serve our students a blend of old time-tested methodologies and new technologies. Online education will not supplant brick-and-mortar education, but it will become a mainstream alternative for students and their families. Additionally, there is huge potential for online schools to partner with their brick-and-mortar cousins. In this session we will discuss how our program motivates, mentors, and socially sustains our students. Our schools unique approach to structured flexibility allows GWUOHS students freedom to explore various academic and social interests while engaged in a rigorous collegeprep program. c4 What Every Tech Director Should Know about Online/Blended Learning (PACIFIC II-III) Mark Olson, Director of Technology Integration, Shattuck-St. Marys School This session will cover the similarities and differences between online, blended, and traditional learning with regards to technology and instructional practices. We will discuss the base technologies that are needed to accomplish blended and online learning, assistive technologies that can be implemented above and beyond the base technologies that will enhance the students and instructors experience, as well as the differences between the pre-packaged online courses that are currently available and in-house created online/blended courses such as those prepared by Shattuck-St. Marys teachers for their students. 10

Its About Time: How Blended Learning Changes the Bell Schedule (PROMENADE) Heather Staker, Senior Research Fellow at Innosight Institute Nick Stoneman, President, Shattuck-St. Marys School Courtney Cavellier, Director of Studies, Shattuck-St. Marys School Online learning flips the question of time on its head. Whereas classroom time used to be the constant and learning was variable, now its the reverse. Students can access content and instruction 24/7, and that changes how to optimize the school schedule to support learning. This session will explore several questions that arise as a result, such as whether to depart from a rigid, traditional schedule in favor of one that is more student controlled. Heather Staker will present the national perspective, and Nick Stoneman and Courtney Cavellier will share their local experiences redesigning the schedule at Shattuck-St. Marys. d2 The Mechanics of Launching an Online Learning Initiative (SIERRA II) Michael Ehrhardt, Head of School, Marshall School; Board Member,The VHS Collaborative You think your school is ready to embrace some form of online learning options for students? Instead of building something from scratch, consider a collaborative. Hear tips from a head of school on how to approach evaluating and implementing an online program at your school. Areas covered will include: what to look for in a program, assessing why an online program is a good fit for your mission, making the case with the Board, getting faculty involved, setting expectations with parents, and how the program looks and feels for students once it is up and running.

We will also examine how we can use the opportunity of Web 2.0 and the like to become active, involved, participating, creative citizens, in the manner of the Ancient Athenian polis. d4 Leveraging Your Millennials (SIERRA I) Kelsey Vroomunn, Online and Blended Learning Specialist, HS Teacher, St. Marys Academy The Millennial generation has arrived in our independent schools, but not just in the students desks. Teachers born of this new generation are entering the classrooms equipped with technological know-how, social media savvy, and in many cases direct experience with online or blended courses from their university days. Leveraging their expertise and capitalizing on the often-touted Millennial drive for meaningful work can be a cost effective and engaging way to change the internal culture of your school. From designing online new teacher in-services and establishing reverse mentorship relationships to creating a leadership trajectory for your young techies, we will examine the ways to enhance your schools digital profile by empowering its youngest faculty.

The Role of Governance in Transitioning an Educational Model (PROMENADE) Nick Stoneman, President, Shattuck-St. Marys School Marion Edwards, former Board Chair, Shattuck-St. Marys School How does a Board of Trustees remain current in its understanding of the significant impact technology can have in shaping the delivery of a schools educational program? What is its role in supporting, critiquing, guiding, or funding the schools growth and evolution in implementing a blended learning model? This session, through a joint presentation from the former Board Chair and the School President of Shattuck-St. Marys School, will show one schools journey a road map of how a schools administration and Board can work hand in hand to bring to fruition a new and exciting approach to education. e2 Beyond Silo Stored Content: Why We Must Envision a New Curriculum along with the New Tools (PACIFIC II-III) Jenifer Fox, Head of School,The Clariden School of Southlake The organization of the content of our current secondary curriculum is no longer relevant to todays youth. New tools are forcing new schools. The Clariden School of Southlake is boldly going where few independent schools have gone, exploding the content silos in favor of project strands that are entirely performance based, paperless and meaningful only beyond the school walls.

e3 Using Computer-Based Laboratory Simulations in a Blended and Traditional Classroom Environment (SIERRA II) Matthew Inman, Instructor of Science, Shattuck-St. Marys School There are many topics in science for which the development of hands-on lab work is not possible because of lab equipment which is prohibitively expensive, procedures which are too complex for the average student, or the time or size scale of the experiment is not realistic. These would include experiments like creating your own solar system, seeing individual gas particles in a container of gas, or investigating how different genetic characteristics are shown in a population. Many of these simulations can be found online through various groups and organizations, like PhET, the Physics Education Team at the University of Colorado: Boulder. The advantages and disadvantages of using such simulations will be looked at and discussed. This presenter has taught both physics and chemistry in both a blended and a traditional environment and uses these simulations in all classes.

e4 Revolutionary Alliances: Transformative Language Instruction (SIERRA I) Suzanne Fogarty, Upper School Director, Berkeley Carroll School Thana Jarjour-Moussa, Arabic Teacher, Johns Hopkins Center for Talented Youth Online Language Program Nathalie Youman, Chair of World Languages, Berkeley Carroll School To live and lead in the 21st century, American high school graduates must be proficient in more than one language. Because there are only so many periods in the traditional school day, schools need to revolutionize the way they think about time. Through the Berkeley Carroll partnership with Johns Hopkins CTY Online Program, students take language in school and an additional language online. This 6th academic course occurs outside the structure of the school day and builds skills of independence, flexibility and resilience. Additionally, online courses absorb fewer resources than hiring language faculty. The presenters will demonstrate how an online language class works and how it complements the traditional classroom structure. pep Talk #4 assessment (PACIFIC I)

However, educators often experience challenges with the practical application of personalized differentiation based on the information collected on student learning profiles. Schools must translate valuable student data into an instructional approach that results in meaningful student engagement. This information can be mined and applied on an individual level for each student with effective implementation. This session will explore the best practices of applying data from student learning profiles to increase academic success. Participants will learn how schools and teachers can personalize big data to produce positive educational outcomes that are unique to each student. Topics will include: faculty engagement, adaptations to curriculum and teaching, and metrics related to student feedback and academic results. f3 Taming the Panther: Copyright and Fair Use in Online Learning (PACIFIC II-III) Rabbi Seth Linfield, Executive Director,Yeshivah of Flatbush This session will offer practical pointers, for school and teacher, on what to do and stay away from in offering or using online learning environments, from course management systems to blending learning to personal faculty websites. We will explore: who owns and may use contributions made by faculty, staff, or students; positioning your work to encourage only desired uses, by your students and others; how to decide if your use of anothers work is fair use, including the true meaning of the so-called 10% rule; steps for avoiding infringement; responsibilities to protect the intellectual property of others, during and after the semester; and what training and policies a school should put in place. We will glean insights from the district courts recent decision in Cambridge University Press v. Becker (N.D.Ga. 2012), the Georgia State educational fair use case. 15

The Minefield Created by Online Learning for Independent School Accreditation (BAYVIEW) Doug Phelps, Head of School, Park Century School (2013) Sanje Ratnavale, Co-Head of School,The Cohort School Nat Damon, Assistant Head of School, John Thomas Dye School The standards and practices of independent school accreditation are not prepared for the changes taking place in the online education market. Should schools be allowed to place grades on their transcripts from outside providers? What degree of control and evaluation oversight should a school have over teachers not employed by the school itself? How are the equity, governance and diversity issues handled when courses are offered to students at different price points or to students with varying access to technology or with different levels of preparation for online learning? In this presentation we look at these issues and the accreditation landscape that is increasingly being driven by others. We examine the implications of the University of California system revising its (a)(g) requirements and placing new burdens for online courses to qualify starting in February 2013. We look at the outsized influence of associations like iNACOL with large public school memberships on the market. We look at the gaps in our accreditation environment and we offer some suggestions.

Both intensive and comprehensive, the workshop will cover issues of curriculum, staffing and training, scheduling, infrastructure, policy, oversight and assessment. G3 Using Online Chats to Create Student Collaboration (PROMENADE) Karen Scheel, History Department Chair, Shattuck-St. Marys School When first moving from a face-to-face classroom into an online format or a blended model, many teachers fear that they will lose the valuable discourse that occurs during a traditional class. However, discussion and collaboration can continue online. Students can carry out meaningful discussion with their teachers and peers, share ideas and projects, and work collaboratively in an online venue. In fact, many students find that online discussion and collaboration is better than classroom discourse because more voices are heard and students have more time to formulate their contribution to the discussion. In this session you will learn practical strategies to create meaningful class discussion and collaboration through the use of chats and forums.

Michael Nachbar, Director, Global Online Academy Brad Rathgeber, Director, Online School for Girls OSG and GOA are forging a new direction for online education that is driven by the independent schools that these consortia serve. In this lunchtime presentation, GOA Director Michael Nachbar and OSG Director Brad Rathgeber highlight the importance of online independent schools and the opportunities they offer our schools, teachers, and students. The collaborative, consortium-based efforts of these two organizations offers a non-profit, mission-driven opportunity for independent schools to define a method of online education that is aligned with the philosophies and ideals of independent schools across the nation and around the world. Knowing that independent schools traditionally take great pride in promoting close student-teacher connections, academic rigor, and community-building, both OSG and GOA have embraced these principles while taking full advantage of the unique characteristics and advantages of learning online. The engagement, deep learning, and understanding that are hallmarks of independent school education remain guiding themes for these consortias 90+ independent school partners. This presentation will highlight how these programs are defining online excellence for their independent school communities. 12:40-1:30 pm (PACIFIC I) pep Talk #6 Sciences

These communities of practice are driven by the essential questions of what makes for optimal conditions for teaching and learning, and how do we make our online courses innovative, and not just replacements of what we do in our face-to-face classes. This session will support other educators looking to nurture conversations about best practices in developing blended, hybrid or totally online courses in their own schools or as part of the various consortia of online learning. 18
