 Laura Thomas Thursday, October 25th, 2018 at 7PM Powerful learning communities don't just happen. The process of building classrooms where students take risks, do meaningful work and engage together in deep learning has to be ongoing and intentionally designed. Building collaborative learning communities requires the teacher to facilitate the group through the stages of knowledge, communication, cooperation, and collaboration while also building trust over time. Sounds like a tall order when you already have myriad other responsibilities, but the payoff is worthwhile- students who are safe enough to shine and challenged enough to take risks. In this webinar, we will explore skills and strategies for building the CLC as well why they're more necessary now than ever. Zoom Room: https://zoom.us/j/853845109 We are putting the 2019 lineup together. ISTE challenged us to change the way we teach and talk about Digital Citizenship.
