Student-led conferences
provide students with an opportunity to talk with significant adults
about their educational progress.
Each student invites his or her parents and teacher(s) to attend a meeting concerning the student's educational goals and progress in meeting those goals. The meetings are facilitated by the student and follow an agenda that the student has developed prior to the meeting. During the meeting, the student shares his or her educational goals and examples of his or her work (portfolio). The student also analyzes his or her strengths and weaknesses, and reflects upon the educational consequences of choices the student has made. Together, the student, teacher(s) and parents determine what each will do to help the student move closer to the student's educational goals. Once students have learned how to prepare for and conduct a student-led conference, students can be asked to conduct conferences with their parents at home on a regular basis. Student-led conferencing engages parents. Many schools report doubling their parent participation at parent conferences with this approach.
