CESA 9's Wisconsin Virtual School and Wisconsin eSchool Network (WEN) have partnered with the Department of Public Instruction to create equitable high quality resources to be available throughout Wisconsin. This collaborative partnership is called the Wisconsin Digital Learning Collaborative (WDLC).
Audience: Teams of 3-5 are encouraged. K-12 Administrators, Principals, Curriculum Directors, Special Education Directors, IT Directors, Board Members, other planning team leaders. Workshop is free. Lunch is included.
Description: Online and blended learning has proven to cost-effectively meet critical educational needs by providing opportunities that are not available, leveraging highly qualified teachers, and serving students with unique education needs. As many districts across Wisconsin are planning online or blended programs for their districts, there is much to learn in the development of a quality district digital learning program. During this session, critical areas to consider when planning, implementing, and evaluating your digital learning initiatives will be presented.
Projected Deliverables:
1. Capture ideas on how Wisconsin schools are implementing K-12 online/blended programs.
2. Learn guiding questions for planning in the big four focus areas: content, teaching, technology, and operations.
3. Learn when planning a digital learning program there are important components to be considered such as benefits and limitations, how to manage resources, and developing a quality implementation plan.
4. Learn about the investment considerations, evaluation and assessment, and managing their digital learning initiatives.
5. Work in your district leadership teams to begin to put your digital learning plan together with support and resources available from the facilitators.
