Leveled Learning

Each Resource has been leveled, depending on participants knowledge level of technology integration, knowledge of traditional vs. innovative learning practices, and capacity of comfort level with current position/role.

Level 1: Base Knowledge of Tech Integration, more "traditional" type of teaching. Ideal for New Teacher

Level 2: Capacity to start looking at more innovative practices in classroom. Would like more support on more authentic use of technology integration.

Level 3: Ready for more of a disruptive innovation in classroom with innovative practices, self-directed learning, and truly personalizing the classroom.

This session will be facilitated, or "facili-taught" if you will. We won't be standing in front and talking the entire time, and we won't be telling you exactly what to do. What we will make sure to do, is give you the differentiated and personalized attention you need in learning these tools.
