在本周的節(jié)目中，WAB的學習和教學創(chuàng)新總監(jiān)Stephen Taylor接任主持人，并與最近認證訪問的兩位特邀嘉賓進行了交談：NEASC國際認證負責人Darlene Fisher和國際文憑（IB）世界學校負責人Angela Meikle。他們共同探討了合作學習協(xié)議的制定及其在保持對學校學習的高度重視方面的作用。

Darlene解釋說，NEASC和IB創(chuàng)建CLP的目的是為學校建立一個統(tǒng)一的流程，消除不同組織對多個報告的需求。通過協(xié)調重新評估和重新認證的工作，NEASC和IB尋求簡化認證流程。CLP還作為一種工具，促進學校內部關于學習、學習質量以及改進和轉型方法的深入對話。

Angela補充道，CLP是在過渡時期設計的，當時IB在2020年引入了新的基礎課程標準和實踐，學校在2021年適應了新的評估模式。CLP的制定是為了有效地引導學校關注學習，在這一過渡階段提供清晰的信息。

Stephen闡明了WAB接受這一過程的決定，這是由IB和NEASC之間的哲學一致性以及他們對未來方向的共同承諾所驅動的。斯蒂芬說：“我們不想成為一所坐視不管、繼續(xù)按照我們一貫的方式做事的學校，而是要不斷發(fā)展。授權和認證途徑的演變確實迫使我們保持這種增長心態(tài)。”。

In this week's episode, WAB's Director of Innovation in Learning and Teaching, Stephen Taylor, has taken over as host and engaged in a conversation with two special guests from the recent accreditation visit: Darlene Fisher, an International Accreditation Leader for NEASC, and Angela Meikle, Head of International Baccalaureate (IB) World Schools. Together, they explore the development of the Collaborative Learning Protocol and its role in maintaining a strong focus on learning within schools.  

Darlene explains that the creation of the CLP by both NEASC and IB is aimed at establishing a unified process for schools, eliminating the need for multiple reports for different organizations. By aligning efforts for reevaluation and reaccreditation, NEASC and IB sought to streamline the accreditation process. The CLP also served as a tool to facilitate deep conversations within schools about learning, its quality, and methods for improvement and transformation. Angela adds that the CLP was designed during a transitional period when the IB introduced new foundational program standards and practices in 2020, with schools adapting to the new evaluation model in 2021. The CLP was developed to effectively direct schools' attention towards learning, providing clarity during this transition phase. 

Stephen sheds light on WAB's decision to embrace this process, driven by the philosophical alignment between the IB and NEASC, as well as their shared commitment to future directions. "We don't want to be a school that just sits back and keeps on doing things the way we always do them, but to always keep growing. And this evolution of authorization and accreditation pathways is something that does force that growth mindset," said Stephen.
