Say "Hello" to the Blended Learning Crew

The Blended Learning Crew, or BLC.  Alas, another committee denoted with an acronym involving a whole other series of meetings.  Yes, I know what you're thinking.  However, this one, first formed last year and being comprised of educators from each building, has made tremendous strides in providing direction for teachers in our endeavor to use technology to promote personalized learning. Here is our recently adopted mission statement:  

The Blended Learning Crew provides support for teachers to embrace technology for maximized personalized learning with the realization that students will need to be fluent in its processes and applications for career and college readiness.

Thus far, the BLC has completely revamped the district's Blended Learning Policy to make it a usable document for teachers, outlining technology-integrating procedures and evaluation tools for digital resources.  It is now posted on our district staff page.  Of course, the ongoing challenge then is how can we efficiently communicate all that we are doing and are working towards to each other?  Still working on that one, but this is a first attempt.
