7 Educational Transformations for Any Classroom

7 Educational Transformations for Any Classroom | Into the Driver's Seat | Scoop.it

This year I am aiming high with 7 educational transformations. Many of these have been in place before, but with the latest updates in technology, and access to the world like never before, they are high priority to continue and to build upon. I am fortunate to be able to push into classrooms from kindergarten through twelfth grade for a variety of activities. While it’s not listed in the 7 transformations, the overarching goal will be to help students navigate their digital world and build a positive digital footprint.
