Austin Kinder Learners Celebrate The 100th Day!
Learning Design
This Week's FedEx
This week, we'll have a special offering on tools for blended learning. Specifically, May, Jennifer, and Natalie will be leading a session on curating blended lessons. The first part of the hour will focus on learning the tools (Educanon and Blendspace), while the second part of the hour will provide time for actual lesson design with the experts. Consider joining this FedEx session!
Thank you May, Jennifer, and Natalie!
