Impact by Design: The Intentional Teaching Virtual Institute

This virtual institute provides a deep dive into The Intentional Teaching Model—a framework that positions teachers as evaluators of their own impact and designers of learning experiences that deliberately move students from surface to deep to transfer learning. We will explore the core components of the model, including teacher clarity, learning progressions, success criteria, feedback, and adaptive expertise.

Throughout the institute, educators will examine how intentional teachers plan with precision, notice learning as it unfolds, and adjust instruction based on evidence. They will analyze what high‑impact teaching looks like in action and practice translating the model into concrete classroom routines, lesson structures, and decision‑making habits.

By the end of the day, participants will leave with a practical, research‑aligned toolkit for becoming more intentional, more responsive, and more impactful in their teaching—ensuring that every instructional move is purposeful and every student’s progress is visible.

Learning Intention

Today we are learning about the Intentional Teaching Model and learn how to apply its principles to design, deliver, and refine classroom practices that maximize their impact on student learning..

Success Criteria
