Summer 21st Century Learning

We have put together a plan for summer  designed to introduce teachers to 21st Century Learning. Classes in June will use Macs and focus on Web 2.0 tools, rather than anything that is platform specific.

We will also begin a new round of Digital Leaders in order to develop people in every building who are dedicated to 21st Century Learning.  This new group will be launched through a course in July when the laptops arrive. (Hopefully early)

An opportunities for current Digital Leaders to continue their learning and participate in Train-the-Trainer will be available as well. I've proposed this to be a hybrid format, meaning it would be a combination of in person and virtual participation to allow for flexibility. Dell training for staff will most likely be being around July 8th.

The summer learning plan will be reviewed by the Tech group on Thursday, May 6th, and if all goes well we will post the classes and open them for enrollment right away.
