BlendED Playbook: Digital Workflow
Learning that combines face to face and online learning is a model called blended learning. Blended learning is defined by the Clayton Christensen Institute as, “a formal education program in which a student learns:
at least in part through online learning, with some element of student control over time, place, path, and/or pace;
at least in part in a supervised brick-and-mortar location away from home;
and the modalities along each student’s learning path within a course or subject are connected to provide an integrated learning experience.”
The first step in creating the blended learning environment is to have a digital workflow. This can be accomplished in several ways.
Learning Management System (LMS): such as Schoology, Canvas, or Moodle.
Web Tools such as Seesaw and Classkick.
We use Schoology as our learning management system in Bellevue Public Schools which provides a consistent digital workflow for educators, students, and parents. In providing a digital workflow, teachers have the tools to design instruction that is efficient, differentiated, and private. You can log in to Schoology from a browser by navigating to bellevuepublicschools.org and clicking on Schoology at the top of the page. You can also access Schoology by going to http://bellevue.schoology.com or through the Schoology app on any mobile device.

Hashtags Telling Our Story
One of the most powerful parts of Twitter is the hashtag! It connects people, ideas, and creates communities within Twitter. It is a unique way for our teachers and administrators to share the amazing things happening in our schools, classrooms, clubs, teams and organizations. Our district hashtag, #bpsne, continues to grow and is becoming a powerful tool that we can leverage as a district to connect all of our teachers, students, parents, and community members. We encourage you to continue sharing the great things happening in your classrooms. Here is a list of all of the Bellevue Public School educators on Twitter. Let's create the 2016-2017 Bellevue Public Schools story together!
