Abstract | Historically, deep learning opportunities have occurred in schools attended by this country's most advantaged students, and there have been few successful efforts to systemically create the structures and policies necessary to ensure every student has access to this type of learning. The New Tech Network, a network of more than 200 elementary, middle, and high schools across 25 states, breaks from this norm. It focuses on systemic change and has instantiated deeper learning practices in many geographically, politically, and socioeconomically diverse school settings. This case study describes how New Tech Network has spread its practices to many traditionally structured, public school districts across the United States. This report suggests that the following practices allow the effective transfer of the network's school model and pedagogies: (1) New Tech Network helps partner schools incorporate its core values for student learning into their structures and practices to ensure a shared vision of deeper learning; (2) When a school joins the network, New Tech Network uses a systematic planning and design process that seeks to involve all key stakeholders in the development and implementation of its deeper learning model; (3) New Tech Network facilitates professional learning for adults that is experiential and project-based, mirroring the student learning in New Tech Network schools; (4) New Tech Network provides ongoing supports for educators and school leaders through coaching and professional learning that reinforce the key tenets of New Tech Network and build local capacity; and (5) New Tech Network continuously improves its practices to better meet the needs of educators and school systems in geographically, economically, politically diverse settings.
