From Silos to Synergy: Integrating Instructional Ecosystems
Thursday July 10, 2025 3:10pm - 4:10pm MDT
Room #132
Have you ever wondered about the easiest and most effective ways to accentuate the natural connections that exist across content areas? Have you ever considered how to create systemic supports that incentivize instructional collaboration between teachers of different subjects in Secondary settings? Have you ever thought about using the essential skills in your Portrait of a Graduate/Profile of a Learner as the catalyst for systems-wide integration?

Utah community members expressed that in order to empower our students to develop the essential skills and dispositions present in our Portrait of a Graduate, integrated systems are crucial, because life isn't siloed EXCEPT during traditional schooling. Our community believes that integration provides opportunities for authentic learning and it empowers learners of every background, historic achievement level and socioeconomic status to build the knowledge, skills and dispositions that will set them up for a life well-lived.

The session will begin by inviting participants to explore some of the resources our community has created around integrated subjects and classrooms. Then, using participants' observations and wonders as fuel, we'll share the story of Utah's movement towards integration, asking participants to put themselves in the decision makers seat during some of the challenging inflection points we have faced. Participants will finish the session by reflecting on how the insights they gained can help their communities move towards integrated experiences as the educational normal. We can't wait to learn with and from you in this highly interactive session!
