As educational landscapes evolve, educators need a mindset, skillset, and toolset that allows them to thrive in class, online, or a blend of the two!
Teachers need a robust collection of instructional models in their teaching toolbelts that allow them to architect student-centered learning experiences that differentiate and personalize, give students agency, and shift control over the pace of learning to their students.
Blended learning offers a flexible path forward that allows teachers to create more accessible and equitable learning experiences that free them to spend more time supporting small groups and individual learners.
Right now, school leaders and educational institutions have an opportunity to reimagine what teaching and learning look like moving forward.
"I'm loving this course! The information is so relevant and practical. Dr. Tucker provides clear explanations, great resources, and helpful templates! I feel prepared to teach in person, online, or a mix of the two."
- Colleen, Teacher
