Digital Learning Day is Feb. 17
Stephanie Mikkelsen-Lane, instructional technology consultant
Digital learning is any instructional practice that effectively uses technology to strengthen a student's learning experience. It emphasizes high-quality instruction and provides access to challenging content, feedback through formative assessment, opportunities for learning anytime and anywhere, and individualized instruction to ensure all students reach their full potential to succeed in college and a career.
Digital learning encompasses many different facets, tools and applications to support and empower teachers and students, including online courses, blended or hybrid learning or digital content and resources. Additionally, digital learning can be used for professional learning opportunities for teachers and to provide personalized learning experiences for students.
Started in 2012, Digital Learning Day has provided a powerful venue for education leaders to highlight great teaching practice and showcase innovative teachers, leaders, and instructional technology programs that are improving student outcomes. The grassroots effort blossomed into a massive nationwide celebration as teachers realized that Digital Learning Day is not about technology, it's about learning. It's not about laying off teachers for laptops, it's about enhancing the role of the teacher in America's classrooms.
Digital Learning Day promotes the effective use of modern day tools afforded to every other industry to improve the learning experience in K-12 public schools. Learn more here or contact a GHAEA instructional technology consultant: Maryann Angeroth, Judy Griffin or Stephanie Mikkelsen-Lane.
