• POWER2™ PROGRAMMING

    The mission of IEE is to translate the foundational theory and research of the Smart & Good High Schools report into replicable and user-friendly context-specific programming. We are creating programming that positively impacts the culture and competencies of excellence and ethics in different environments—school, home, work, and others. Current and forthcoming programs include Power2Learn™, Power2Teach™, Power2Lead™, Power2Coach™, Power2Parent™ and Power2Work™. The first two Power2™ programs are currently being implemented in 25 sites around the country:

    Power2Learn

    builds the culture of excellence and ethics and individual character competencies foundational to youth success in school, work, and beyond—regardless of their specific career pathway. Power2Learn™ curriculum helps to increase retention, boost academic achievement, improve workforce preparation, and prepare youth to become productive citizens and lead fulfilling lives.

    Power2Learn™ delivers 28 weeks of student programming in an engaging multi-media format that can be flexibly integrated into middle and high school classroom instruction to enhance essential competencies identified by the leading school improvement frameworks and initiatives, including 21st Century Workforce Skills, NCLB, Social & Emotional Learning Standards, PBiS/PBS. Implemented together with Power2Teach™, the program boosts teaching and learning in all classrooms (1) by identifying the competencies needed for learning and developing them through everyday teaching and learning, and (2) by reinforcing academic achievement and pro-social development through the whole-school culture of excellence and ethics.
