The Digital Innovation Team is constantly finding new ways to bring learning about technology integration to you at whatever speed or level you are at. If you like receiving helpful newsletters, learning just enough about something to get started in 30 minutes or less, listening to podcasts, watching YouTube videos, taking a quick course, or reading an actual book, then we've got you covered! The following options are all available via the Google Form embedded at the bottom of this page. You will want to make sure that you sign up in Frontline, once a quarter, for "DigInn to Professional Learning." Then simply bookmark the form to come back to as many times as you need to submit evidence of new learning.
On the 8th of each month (or as close as possible), the Digital Innovators release a new volume of the Innov8 Newsletter. Each volume consists of 8 segments (some recurring, some new) all focused on effective technology integration with instruction in different and creative ways. Plus, get Frontline credit for reading it and completing the form at the bottom of this page. You can also listen to this year's episodes as a podcast via YouTube.
Join different Digital Innovators and occasional special guests from around the district as we explore different tools, topics, and strategies for effectively integrating technology in ways that best incorporate the 4 C's of 21st Century Learning (Critical Thinking, Collaboration, Communication, and Creativity). Choose from over 40 (and counting) half hour sessions and get credit for completing our form at the bottom of this page. It's so easy!

Are you a bookworm, tech-enthusiast or strive to become one? We've got the top books from the realm of edtech with 10 copies each to loan out to individuals or teams that want to read them. We've baked in some collaboration using Flipgrid to facilitate a quick discussion for each chapter. Better yet, the authors have created unique intros for just our district and are willing to do a live Q&A for all who have joined the Book Club for their book! You don't want to miss out on this opportunity to learn from the best minds in edtech and expand your professional learning network.
