Building Blended Learning Teacher Leaders in Your DistrictDreamBox Learning
In order to transition schools and districts to blended and personalized learning, we must develop a talented pipeline of educators who understand these approaches and can support leaders with this shift.

In this edWebinar, three leaders from the Fellowship present best practices for defining a district’s blended learning vision, identifying priority practices, and coaching early-adopter teachers. Maeve Murray, Julie Mayhew, and Rebecca Willner, share asynchronous resources that you can use to train your own coaches and collaboratively design your own rollout plans.

A Workshop provided to the Singapore Institute of Management, on 25 August 2021.
Abstract: Technology has changed the way we now teach, particularly as we have now moved much of our teaching online. But that poses some challenges for us, as many of us know how to teach in a face-to-face mode, but it’s not the same when we move online. At least it shouldn’t be, as there is so much more we can do to make it better for our students. This workshop looks at how lecturers can decide on which tools to use when looking to enhance their teaching with technology. Which means, it is about choosing the best teaching techniques within the context of your technology environment. Essentially it is looking to engage students through active, collaborative and authentic learning experiences and choosing the corresponding technology tools to match.
