Let's Get Personal-The Rotational Model-First Step to Personalized Learning
The Station Rotation model allows students to rotate through stations on a fixed schedule, where at least one of the stations is an online learning station. This model is most common in elementary schools because teachers are already familiar rotating in "centers" or stations but can be utilized at all levels. Participants will comprehend and practice the Rotational Model, and discuss ways to implement into the classroom.
