This session provides an overview of two approaches to teaching and learning that
are making headlines for innovative practices and how they are built on a foundation of
blended learning. These approaches place the student at the center of teaching and learning.
Arkansas’ Own Team Digital will facilitate the opportunity for participants to learn common
vocabulary and understanding to apply in their classroom, building, or district. Participants will
be able to:
- Define and differentiate between personalized learning, competency-based education,
and blended learning.
- Describe what each approach may look like in the classroom and at school levels.
- Reflect on how a shift towards each approach could impact a child’s education AND your
professional role.
