Vanguard Video Vault Project Launch
Project Details
Why a Vanguard Video Vault?
Because you have so much to share! There is no greater source of expertise in personalized learning than the Vanguard Team, and we hope that you will share that expertise with all of us.
How do I participate?
You will be creating and sharing a video of how you personalize learning using one or more of the seven principles.
You have the freedom to be creative in how you incorporate those principles into your video. The goal is to make it useful to fellow teachers. Videos may focus on only one strategy or several if each are explained. Be sure to visit the Fulton County Personalized Learning Webpage for more information. This ThinkLink offers a nice overview of the seven principles: https://www.thinglink.com/scene/785128426003496961
You may share how YOU incorporate personalized learning
OR
Share how a fellow teacher/ staff member uses the principles. Don’t forget special area teachers too.
Possible formats:
Interview style showing examples of work, photos, results
Adobe Voice, Sway, Power Point, Pow Toon, Animoto, Screencast, etc…
Videos should be no longer than 2-3 minutes please!
Show off anything that will highlight awesome teaching and encourage others to try it!
What do you get?
XP! The amount and category depends on your time investment and the subject matter of the video. Pick the category that fits best.
