Context
In order to better know each of their students, Lovett created Learner Profiles. Learner Profiles include academic data and additional information to help educators gain a more holistic understanding of their students. Some of the topics covered in Learner Profiles include:
- What motivates and inspires each student
- Where and how each student learns best
- Barriers the student faces
- Responsibilities the student has outside of school
(This Approach is Illustrative of LEAP's Learner Focused Strategies)
Student Does
- Shares information about themselves, including motivators and challenges to their learning, both inside and outside the academic setting.

Provides question prompts to help students share information about themselves.
Technology Does
- Shares Learner profiles as online documents so teachers and students can access and update it easily.
