Kenner is a nonprofit organizational development guru, educator and cognitive developmental scientist who has dedicated her 20-year professional career to doing her part to ensure Choice-filled Lives are a right for all children. Her primary areas of expertise are: organizational development (including start-up efforts, as well as overall organizational health and sustainability), cognitive development, language and literacy reform, early childhood education, special education, dual-language immersion, adult learning and research & evaluation. Brandi holds a Ph.D. from Emory University‘s Laney Graduate School in Cognitive and Developmental Psychology, an M.Ed. in Behavior and Learning Disabilities from Georgia State University, and a bachelor’s degree with foci in Elementary Education and Sociology from the University of Michigan in Ann Arbor. She also received a leadership certification in Nonprofit Leadership, Governance and Finance from the Georgia Charter Schools Association. Upon graduating from the University of Michigan, Brandi began her career as a classroom teacher in an African-centered charter school in Detroit, Michigan. She then moved to Atlanta, Georgia where she served in a variety of classroom teaching positions in subsequent traditional public and charter schools for 5 years. After leaving the k-12 classroom space, Brandi broadened her impact and reach through serving in roles in higher education teacher preparation, preschool and k-8 charter school development, consulting, independent school executive leadership, and nonprofit executive leadership with both large organizations such as Teach For America, and smaller nonprofit organizations with national reach and scale. Brandi founded Choice-filled Lives Network, Inc. to have broader impact and scale in her work, and to serve as a connector among the many educational nonprofit and social-change organizations in the state of Georgia, and our country, that are doing their part to eliminate inequity and opportunity gaps, ensuring Choice-filled Lives for children each day. Brandi resides in Atlanta, Georgia. In her free time, she enjoys spending time with her family and friends, gardening, cooking and traveling anywhere that has sun, a white or black sand beach, and clear water. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5e386db54376d45a8a76e551/1580915668748-XA5EI52U3W5WYN3XNKT7/brandi+kenner.png Working Group https://www.selfdirect.school/get-early-access daily 0.75 2020-02-27 https://www.selfdirect.school/new-school-models-design-lab daily 0.75 2021-02-24 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5e386db54376d45a8a76e551/1594746930160-LJRKAJK8XH07PN1Y7H4M/78050867_10216188758255059_5694313713150984192_n.jpg New School Models Design Lab - A proven process Developed originally at the University of Pennsylvania Graduate School of Education Master's degree in Education Entrepreneurship program, the New School Models Design Lab provides a design process that allows leaders and educators to tackle the following issues: How might we meet the needs of our youngest learners and most vulnerable students? How might we increase access to technology and align learning environments accordingly? How might we run remote and in-person learning concurrently? How can we limit learning loss while schools are closed? How might we address student motivation while working at home? Developed for individuals and team members who work on or support those who affect the design of learning environments, the Design Lab focuses on understanding how and why today's learning environments can be improved to better support students. Participants will leave the Design Lab with their own “Blueprint” for a New School Model, along with resources to help pursue their vision.

Conditions for Innovation To explore the conditions for innovation, this Institute anchors in Transcend’s Conditions for Innovation framework, which suggests that a community’s ability to engage in innovation depends on several crucial factors, including their capacity, internal culture, conviction that change is necessary, clarity on their context, goals, and strategy, and the depth, breadth, and diversity of their coalition for change. Participants of this Institute will explore how to use the framework for reflection and self-assessment, strategic planning and decision making, professional development, collective action, partnership vetting, and vision casting. In addition, this Institute draws on multiple leadership theories, case studies, and strategies that will develop a leader’s and/or leadership team’s capacity to grow—and sustain over time—the conditions for innovation. Institute participants will learn ways to grow local conviction for innovation, to improve their clarity of vision, to build a culture of innovation in their organization, to fully align resources with innovation goals, and to develop a coalition of support. Similar to how trees need good soil to live and grow, innovative learning communities require strong conditions perpetually. Thus, paying close attention to conditions for innovation is applicable for teams at any stage of the innovation journey—whether they’re building a new learning model, advancing or improving an existing learning community, or codifying and sharing an education innovation. The experiences of this Institute are also relevant across a wide range of education settings—including districts, charter, and private; rural, urban, and suburban; and in- and out-of-school.

LEAD envisions a future where learning takes place within the household, in conversation with family. This is learning that demystifies complex, yet commonplace, concepts for all members of the family in a way that leads to lifelong curiosity and opportunities; especially for marginalized communities. The Institute for Self Directed Learning is partnering with LEAD to bring this vision to life; beginning with developing a Theory of Change as well as creating a list of research questions that will be used in a landscape analysis of similar learning opportunities. https://www.selfdirect.school/portfolio-2/project-four-g7xf2 monthly 0.5 2021-03-03 https://www.selfdirect.school/portfolio-2/project-three-jfn4e monthly 0.5 2021-03-03 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5e386db54376d45a8a76e551/2402f341-112b-45e5-af07-8f0d26bec9db/15003256_1137466579667921_7244198529464169519_o%2B%284%29.jpg Our Work - Path Project https://www.selfdirect.school/portfolio-2/project-two-c7l24 monthly 0.5 2021-03-03 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5e386db54376d45a8a76e551/a2e98259-4791-4391-9c4f-4d701991d84e/Screen+Shot+2021-03-03+at+10.16.56+AM.png Our Work - Pike County School District https://www.selfdirect.school/portfolio-2/liberty-tech-charter-schools monthly 0.5 2022-12-27 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5e386db54376d45a8a76e551/5c09adc9-255c-4efc-a78b-76cb83590335/ltcs-color-logo_orig.png https://www.selfdirect.school/portfolio-2/project-one-4kyb7 monthly 0.5 2021-03-03 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5e386db54376d45a8a76e551/1614789379306-2US9TJC2L8XV1HR5INVY/nais.jpeg Our Work - NAIS Strategy Lab - NAIS’ Strategy Lab team partners with directly with schools to co-create a new vision for strategy and action.

The Institute for Self-Directed Learning worked with NAIS to develop and implement an assessment tool that helps identify the Conditions for Innovation in their participating member schools. Subsequently, The Institute for Self-Directed Learning was invited to be a keynote speaker in NAIS’ annual conference, speaking to the future of education.
