The EASL Institute, and Outcomes-based Assessment

The EASL Institute was founded in response to the interest in data-driven, outcomes-based assessment from school leaders and teachers nationally.  After doing many presentations to workshops and conferences nationally, and guiding implementation in several schools, the Institute's founders decided to create a non-profit Institute as a home for the work of transforming teaching and learning based on learning targets, evidence of learning, and deep work around bringing these elements to the center of a school's learning community.

Currently based in Chicago, the Institute supports schools in Oakland, CA; New York; Chicago; Boston; and Chattanooga as well as Jakarta, Indonesia.  It draws on a core group of veteran classroom teachers and school leaders to provide professional development and consulting services to schools utilizing the EASL approach and EASE software.

The Institute is led by Executive Director Peggy Baker.
