Translating for #PedagogicalMasterPlanning – testing some ideas and language:

Pedagogical master planning consists of strategically designing plans and structures for evolving, school curriculum and instruction, as well as all of the intersecting educational domains, such as professional learning and development, assessment, learning environments, stakeholder communications, etc. This process includes the inventory and analysis of existing structures, methods, and pedagogies, all of which represent the history and the present of the institution.

Thus, the relationship of the current reality to an adjacent possible becomes a critical consideration in the pedagogical master plan exercise.
