2. Learning Village Houghton Mifflin Learning Village is an application that both educators and students can join together in a learning community. Collaborating among its members help students higher level thinking which is crucial for 21st century learners.

3. to provide students with ways to work collaboratively using technologies in a personalized environment. Effective learning will increase when learning villages are present in an educational setting. The TIME IS NOW
5. Recognizing Problem Or Need I had heard this expression from my principal and thought what a great concept. Although, I am not a teacher, I often hear from teachers that they feel overextended. Teachers time is often consumed by creating meaningful lesson plans that will extend the students thought process, finding the time to implement each lesson, grading to a rubric and providing insightful comments not to mention benchmark testing, teaching to standards and finding ways to meet each student at their present level. No wonder why when a new concept, idea or program is "pushed" on them they are closed off and think it is "just something else to do". All too often, educators lack the critical instructional resources to provide students with the individual support they need. Now, with the power of technology, educators can enhance classroom content and make curriculum available to all students and teachers from one central learning hub. By effectively integrating digital content as a learning tool across the entire district, teachers and students gain unlimited opportunities for focused, efficient instruction that connects and aligns resources to the district benchmarks.
6. As 21st learning is upon us…Houghton Mifflin Learning Village is a powerful instructional framework that represents the next generation of learning – creating a single point of access for curriculum, communication, collaboration, teaching and professional development.

Reinforce with teachers who adopt the innovations importance, as well as keeping abreast of any new issues. Help teachers foster new relationships with other teachers preferably from another school to spread benefits of innovation.
18. Laggards will need extra attention to see perceived benefits of Learning Village. Hands on training Allow time needed to sit with those already adopting and implementing. Meet with those laggards regularly to address questions/issues Help those Believe
20. Reaching critical Mass A key to reaching critical mass with Learning Village will be to; Target individuals in a system whom others look to for help. Offering incentives to the teachers for trying Learning Village. Act as if “Everybody’s using it” and it’s the next big sweep in Education. DON’T GIVE UP ON THE IDEA
21. Philosophy As a school we are an educational organization with goals to help students progress in their learning and help them become and feel successful. Part of that is to differentiate lessons based on students needs. Learning Village can help obtain those goals by providing a way for teachers to collaborate and share lessons. Not every student “gets it” the first time or necessarily the way we teach it. It is important that we find ways to engage those students without taking the time and effort to redo or rethink our lessons. We know a teachers time is valuable, so why not share our expertise and knowledge with one another and we will more likely connect concepts with students. Learning Village will analyze each students performance and identify resources that will help your instruction.
23. Believe As becoming an educator each one of us made a commitment to provide what is best for students. What better way than to implement Learning Village. A specifically designed program for our all of us that will align objectives, content, assessment and resources to our benchmarks and standards. We are all educators who wish to do the very best we can for each and every student. Learning Village is a platform that can aide us in achieving that in a more efficient way. Advocacy of innovation and commitment to integration on the part of the institution's administration is essential to its success, in addition to a strong advocacy ,conditions are necessary for technology adoption and diffusion, training on real needs is crucial to its integration Time for experimentation and development of applications is essential. Successful peer users are needed to lead its integration into the curriculum. This we can do! Let’s be a part of the implementation of this great tool designed specifically for our needs.
