Too many students spend their days in classrooms passively observing, instead of actively engaging. As a result, they are not developing their metacognitive, critical thinking, and self-regulatory skills; all of which are critical to success both in the classroom and beyond.

In my last blog, I focused on the Universal Design for Learning (UDL) principle of representation. I described how blended and online learning can help educators provide opportunities for students to perceived and engage with information presented in multiple modalities.

There are several reasons it’s critical to consider balance when designing learning experiences. The person doing the work in a classroom is the person doing the learning. So, students should do the heavy cognitive lift of making meaning and applying their learning.

Blended learning is the thoughtful design and facilitation of learning experiences that strive to shift control from teacher to learner by weaving together active, engaged learning online and offline. It can combine both in-class and online learning at home with the flipped classroom and playlist models.

Teachers got a crash course in creating video content when schools shifted online. They relied on videos out of necessity to explain concepts and model strategies while students learned from home. As teachers transitioned back into classrooms, many abandoned video in favor of live instruction.

As the dust settles from emergency distance learning, schools now have the summer to reckon with what worked and what must change as they grapple with the uncertainty of the next academic year. Some educators who want to make online learning more engaging and accessible are exploring the Universal Design for Learning (UDL) framework.

Thousands of teachers every year take education classes to renew their license, move up to the next salary range at their school (I did that–often), or learn teaching skills they didn’t get in their degree program (like remote teaching or in-depth technology). Topics include but not limited to: Flipped Classrooms.

Each member of the PLC will take what the team created or designed back to their classrooms to implement. Putting teaching teams in charge of their own learning will turn learning from an event into a process and reinforce the mindset that teachers are the “lead learner” in a classroom or on a campus.

It was one of the first models, along with the flipped classroom, that I could employ in my low-tech classroom. In the early days of my transition to blended learning, I had one Chromebook, which I received after writing a Donor’s Choose project. Learning is, in part, a social endeavor.

Hattie’s and Timperley’s (2007) research on feedback identified it as having a significant impact on student achievement and learning.

Still, the best aspect of using choice boards from a teacher’s perspective is the time and space they create for us in the classroom. The goal of this time from a teacher’s perspective should be to connect with learners and shift more time-consuming teacher tasks, like feedback and grading, into the classroom.
