Pathful in Practice: Share What’s Working for Your Students
Using Pathful with students? Share a strategy that works and help inform future Pathful in Practice posts written by and for educators.
Educators often learn best by seeing how Pathful is used in real settings.
They want to understand what it looks like in practice:
- How Pathful fits into real schedules
- How educators structure it over time
- How students engage beyond a single activity
Pathful in Practice exists to share those answers through real strategies submitted by educators working with students in a wide range of roles and contexts.
What is Pathful in Practice?
Pathful in Practice is a series of posts built around strategies educators use with Pathful to support students.
Each post focuses on one clear approach and explores:
- The setting the educator is working in
- How the strategy runs in practice
- How students engage over time
- Why the approach works in that context
Rather than describing everything Pathful can do, the series focuses on how a specific strategy works well and why it is worth repeating.
What kinds of strategies are a good fit?
We are looking for strategies that are already part of your work with students.
That might include:
- A routine you use consistently in a classroom, club, or program
- A way you structure reflection or exploration
- How you sequence Pathful across a semester, year, or multi-year experience
- A recurring use of Live Work-Based Learning sessions
- A rollout or implementation approach used across a school, district, or organization
The most helpful submissions focus on one idea and explain it clearly enough that another educator could adapt it to their own setting.
If you are unsure whether your idea is a fit
If it is something you do regularly and would recommend to a colleague working with a similar group of students, it is worth sharing.
Many Pathful in Practice posts highlight straightforward, repeatable strategies that work because they are realistic, sustainable, and grounded in day-to-day practice.
How the process works
Strategies are submitted directly by educators through a short form designed to capture the same details found in published Pathful in Practice posts.
If a submission is a good fit:
- The Pathful team may follow up to clarify details
- A Pathful in Practice post is drafted in collaboration with the educator
- The educator reviews and approves the final version
Nothing is published without educator review and approval.

Sharing what works
Pathful in Practice is built on the idea that educators learn best from real examples. When educators share how they use Pathful with students, it helps others move from wondering how it might work to seeing how it could fit into their own practice.
Educators who contribute often share that taking a few minutes to write their approach down helps them reflect on and strengthen what they are already doing. Just as importantly, it gives fellow educators something concrete to learn from, adapt, and build on in their own work with students.
What feels routine in one place can be exactly what another educator needs to get started, and sharing those approaches helps make that connection possible.
