Allison Zmuda
As a full-time education consultant, I work with school staff facilitating curriculum,
assessment and instructional designs around the core principles of co-creation, feedback,
sharing, and learning. Over the past twelve years, I have spoken to tens of thousands of
educators about curricular, assessment, instructional, and leadership ideas to open them
up to possibilities, show them illustrative examples, and offer practical strategies of how
to get started. Many of the examples to be included in our book will come from these
experiences so I can share both the product and the context. I have written seven books
and numerous articles that focus on making more powerful connections with students,
staff, and parents. My most recent book, Learning Personalized: The evolution of a
contemporary classroom (Jossey Bass 2015), frames personalized learning as a student-
driven experience where the student has an augmented role in the co-creation of their
own experience in design, evaluation, and refinement. My new venture is my website:
Learning Personalized: http://learningpersonalized.com. I am the co-creator and primary
curator for the site. I have done guest interviews with Heidi Hayes Jacobs, Grant
Wiggins, Tony Wagner, and Jay McTighe (who also recently signed on as a regular
blogger). I also do regular blog posts on the site, comment daily on Twitter, and am
active on LinkedIn.
