Let’s talk about learning.

Bio…

Myron frequently visits schools, conferences, districts, parent meetings, not-for-profits, and industry worldwide to share his 30 years of practitioner and leadership experience. He helps individuals and groups generate ideas and navigate issues related to standards-based grading, assessment, reporting, student voice, technology (such as AI), and change. Over the past decade, Myron has been immersed in BC’s educational changes, including the recent introduction of a new proficiency scale, combined with student self-reflection and goal setting. Myron’s keynotes, sessions, and full-day workshops focus on balancing theory and tools, and he has shared his assessment strategies with public-sector schools, conferences, and organizations, including ASCD, AMISA, AAIE, EARCOS, Tri-Association, Cognia, and more.

Myron’s published work includes numerous journal articles and his two best-selling books: Grading Smarter, Not Harder – Assessment Strategies that Motivate Kids and Help Them Learn (ASCD, 2014) and Giving Students a Say! Smarter Assessment Practices to Empower and Engage (ASCD, 2021). Myron and his family live in Summerland, British Columbia (BC), Canada.

Reviews

You hit it out of the park – I couldn’t have asked for your presentation to be more aligned with what we need here to move forward this year.

Lots of positive comments from many staff, including this was “the best opening of the year ever during my time at Jackson” and “Myron was my favorite presenter in my 26 years of education.”
