Welcome to Applied Digital Learning
Blended Learning in the Classroom
The proposal advocates for the use of the Blended Learning Model. The Blended Learning Model gives students Choice, Ownership, and Voice through authentic learning environments. It provides the opportunity for students to collaborate, communicate, be creative and develop critical thinking skills in becoming life-long learners. Blended learning creates a dynamic environment- catering to each students needs to attain the skills necessary for responsible citizenship in a 21st century world.
About me
As an experienced teacher, I found that I was beginning to fall into a rut. I was not changing with the way my students were changing with the technology in their hands. I am working on changing the way I teach, so my students can hopefully change the way they see education and learn. In this journey, through the ADL program, I hope to become the learner and then pass the learning process onto others.
The Goal:
Applied Digital Learning is an e-portfolio dedicated to empowering educators and students through self-guided learning in the digital age. Here, I share reflections on the journey towards becoming an autodidactic leader and learner, highlighting the challenges and triumphs that come with helping students become self-directed learners. My mission is to provide teachers and students with the tools, insights, and inspiration needed to navigate the ever-evolving landscape of digital learning. Whether you're a seasoned educator or just starting out, my site hopes to offer resources and perspectives to help you become a more effective, independent, and innovative teacher and your students effective, independent learners.
