Join Allison Pontious and I as we discuss some of the professional development opportunities, technology, and personalized choice options Alli gleaned from her time at the PBS Lead Innovators Summit over the 2017 summer.
As you listen…
-
Consider potential opportunities for personalization by creating opportunities for students to demonstrate their understanding of a (any) concept through music.
-
Note how the challenge posed by a new learning context/opportunity forced Alli to grow as a learner and innovator. How might these practices be replicated in your classroom?
-
Reflect on Bray and McClasky’s work that identifies the three stages of a personalized learning environment and consider how they pertain to learners having a choice in the way in which they demonstrate their mastery of content and skills.
