"Meeting the needs of each student through personalized, competency-based learning (PCBL) is more important than ever. Blended learning can help us achieve this vision. These free tools and resources are intended to support school and district leaders in implementing PCBL environments through blended learning. They may be the catalyst for an initial conversation or serve as a continuous improvement resource for those well down the path of the work. Explore definitions, reflect with your team, engage in a readiness assessment, and utilize curated resources to develop a blueprint for implementation and continuous improvement."

It combines best practices from educational research with innovative technologies to deliver an engaging learning experience. The design of Alien Rescue is based on current research in teaching and learning and is continually developed and improved by researchers from The University of Texas at Austin."

Would be interesting to create a field guide around this to support progressive levels of readiness for folks heading into fall planning in earnest.
