    In the midst of a growing storm of new technology-induced learning concepts such as flipped learning, blended learning, personalized learning (to mention but a few) , teachers are left with no other alternatives but to enhance and accommodate their professional development efforts to suit the changing educational paradigms. Edsurge called this "personalized professional development". This is the kind of life-long learning that involves the integration and leverage of digital media and technology (and offsite resources) for expanding one's field of expertise. Image source: EdSurge The web now abounds with all kinds of resources, tools, materials, and know-how to help teachers grow professionally. EdSurge has this wonderful guide featuring a set of different tools that teachers can draw on to expand their professional development. These tools are selected in such a way that they address different areas : They support how teachers engage with colleagues They help teachers learn or find support for implementing fresh strategies and approaches They measure how that learning impacts practice in the classroom. To better evaluate how these tools help teachers grow professionally, EdSurge created a "framework of a continuous cycle of learning." This framework is composed of 4 stages: engage, learn, support, and measure. Under each of these stages is featured a collection of web tools to help teachers get more out of that stage.

  • university admissions officers were involved in our project as well, campaigning for new kinds of standards. Until college admissions change the kind of testing that measures who does and doesn’t get into college, high school can’t change, and if high school doesn’t change, grade school can’t change. If grade school can’t change, kindergarten can’t change, and if kindergarten can’t change, preschool isn’t going to change.

      High School college counselors have more influence on digital teaching and learning in high schools than any other individual or policy.
  • more corporations involved—not in terms of the corporatizing of public education but rather in being more vocal and persuasive about the kind of workforce that is needed today and the mismatch between the training we support in our schools and the demands of a changing workplace.
  • they hire brilliant students with excellent test scores and grades and then find that they are so focused on getting the right answers that they don’t actually know how to do what is essential—which is identifying what you don’t know, and then finding out who can help you get the answers.
  • excited about connecting worlds that aren’t traditionally connected—game designers with teachers with institutional authorities like superintendents, principals, and school boards.

    "Moving a campus to one-to-one is a huge change for schools when properly implemented. It can and should change the ways that teachers teach and students learn. The technology allows for lessons to be enhanced in ways that are nearly impossible without the use of it. But before any of this can happen, there should be a lengthy period of discussion and research, and certain questions must be answered by all involved. Here are some of the questions to consider."
