LEARN MORE: MCL’s GUIDING PRINCIPLES

We are UNCOMPROMISINGLY LEARNER-CENTERED by:

• Focusing on learning versus on control and compliance
• Optimizing learning versus adult convenience;
• Preparing learners for life versus for more school.

We use INTRINSIC MOTIVATORS that:

• Create autonomy and engaged versus apathy and alienation;
• Build a growth mindset versus fixed mindset culture;
• Support mastery versus manipulate compliance.

We adhere to the following FOUNDATIONAL PRINCIPLES of LEARNING:

• Learners learn in different timeframes and different ways.
• Mistakes are inherent in learning.
