Connected Learning
Learning is about "Connecting the Dots"
Professional Connections
Tackle iObservation Domain 4!
- Promote positive interactions with colleagues
- Promote positive interactions about students and parents
- Seek mentorship for areas of need or interest
- Mentor other teachers and share ideas and strategies
Connected Classrooms
Prepare students for their future not for our past. Connect Common Core Standards and the 4Cs to create a Learning Community that puts students in control.
The CCSS calls for technology-embedded instruction. Teaching and learning requires digital student collaboration, thinking skills, and use of multimedia.
Connect Globally
Global collaboration shows students that they are part of something bigger than themselves. Globally connected learning shows students that the world needs to be protected and we need to care for all people.
Listen to the "Global Connections Commerical". Created by kids with "Magic Garageband".
