We dedicate this book to the memory of Dr. Grant Wiggins (1950–2015). Grant was an intellectual force and beloved friend who challenged educators to question the status quo, examine “unthinking habits,” envision the future, and always plan with the end in mind. While no longer with us, his influence permeates the book.
What the Experts Are Saying About Leading Modern Learning
“Making a remarkably timely contribution to the modernization of learning organizations, McTighe and Curtis provide clear and creative guidance on how to move from ‘old school’ to new. The transition is a challenging one, requiring specifics on operationalizing fresh visions coupled with practical, realistic steps. Administrators, teachers, curriculum designers, and community members will find solutions and imaginative possibilities here. Learning Modern Learning: A Blueprint for Vision-Driven Schools is a must-read for the right-now educator.”
—Heidi Hayes Jacobs, Author, Director of Curriculum 21 Project
“Both practical and aspirational, this book provides a clear, detailed, and informed plan for closing the considerable gap between how teaching and learning are often planned and implemented and how they would be designed and enacted if we were determined to do what we already know to do. This is no Jetson-like school of the future, but rather a familiar place made extraordinary through deep thinking and sustained planning. Leading Modern Learning provides the tools and guidance to for leaders with the vision and courage to use them.”
—Carol Ann Tomlinson, William Clay Parrish, Jr. Professor, Curry School of Education and Human Development, University of Virginia
“School staffs and educational leaders wishing to modernize their curriculum will profit from following the logical and detailed processes offered in this practical guide to curriculum design. It is built around three essential curriculum decisions: what’s worth learning (outcomes), how to determine if the outcomes have been achieved (assessment), and what instructional strategies best facilitate students acquiring those outcomes (instruction). It all starts, however, with creating and committing to a vision—not only for learners and schools but also for a more thought-full world.”
—Art Costa, Professor Emeritus, California State University, Sacramento
“This book makes a significant contribution to the current thinking about transforming schools into systems where thoughtful work takes place at every level. Jay McTighe and Greg Curtis refresh the original book with new insights and field notes from their practice.

It is a real commitment to sharing your continuous learning journey.”
—Bena Kallick, Cofounder and Codirector of Institute for Habits of Mind, Program Director for Eduplanet21.com
