From Chasing Points & Levels to Deep Learning

Webinar Summary:

Teachers everywhere are noticing the same patterns: students who are disconnected, distracted, hyper–focused on grades, and emotionally checked out. Many educators are searching for ways to spark genuine engagement and rekindle a desire to learn.

In this recorded one-hour session, 22-year veteran Canadian educator Danielle Paloposki shares how to shift from chasing points and proficiency levels to designing for deep learning—using AI as a powerful design partner. Educators will walk away with practical strategies to create learning experiences that build clarity, autonomy, and ownership for students, all without adding extra hours to planning or creating chaos in the classroom.

Through relatable stories and classroom-tested moves, Danielle demonstrates how intentional assessment and learning design can help students feel capable, confident, and motivated again—while freeing up your time and placing the cognitive heavy lifting where it belongs: with students.

This session isn’t about blaming students for being “point-obsessed.”
It’s a practical, hopeful roadmap for restoring motivation, deepening learning, and helping students genuinely own their growth.
