Our MissionThe mission of From LtoJ Consulting Group is to dramatically improve student learning by providing local teachers and administrators with significant new insights and strategies.
The key elements of the From LtoJ® process are: Alignment of expectations grade-to-grade, elementary to middle to high school. Alignment with each other is the key. Expecting that both high standards and high success rates are possible at the same time. First comes leadership for learning (meeting the needs common to all students) and then comes management of learning (differentiation, disaggregation). There are three basic, powerful, graphs that provide guidance for decision making by students, teachers and administrators. Data must provide the view through the windshield, not the review mirror. More repeated looks in the rear-view mirror will not provide the necessary improvement. Activities must be taken “off the plate” of educators. Most educational problems (over 95%) are caused by the system and educators have the power to fix most of these systemic issues. [For example, students have permission to forget most of what is taught (cramming). From LtoJ® process eliminates the ability of students to cram; they are forced to place knowledge into long-term memory.] From LtoJ® provides educators with the means to stop the pendulum which continually swings between focus upon what students know and what they can do.
