Blended and Personalized classrooms have learners who feel safe, valued and recognized. These learners understand what they are learning and why they are learning it. They experience learning that meets their needs and are invested and engaged learners. This webinar series dives into the four tenets of blended learning and identifies key practices and strategies to help teachers design learning experiences.
Collaborative Learning Community is the first tenet the Blended and Personalized team will be sharing in this webinar series. The other three tenets (Teacher as Designer, Flexible and Responsive Learning Environment and Students as Self-Directed Learners) are built on the relationships and community within a classroom, so this topic is a good place to start.
