February 1st Set as the First Digital Learning Day

1/30/2012

0 Comments

 
_Wednesday marks the first annual celebration of digital learning, a national celebration initiated by the Alliance for Excellent Education. Digital learning is defined as any instructional practice that is effectively using technology to strengthen the student learning experience and encompasses a spectrum of tools and practices. Examples include online and formative assessment, online content and courses, applications of technology in the classroom and school, adaptive software for students with special needs, and/or providing access to challenging content and instruction. A recently coined term--blended learning--is any time a student learns, at least in part, at a supervised brick-and-mortar location away from home and, at least in part, through online delivery with some element of student control over time, place, and/or pace.

The iPad and Kindle grants received by Pathfinder teachers are bringing more digital possibilities to our students' learning! What has been your child's most powerful digital learning experience?

    _I've loved to read for years--remember these Little Golden Books--and I can't imagine a better job than being a librarian!
    I hope you'll stop by frequently, both online and in person!  Kathy
