Designing your Own Future

The Future of Learning Lens is about you and how you can control your future. Everything is changing now: business, government, newspapers, books, and learning.The Internet democratized how everything is shared and delivered. Learning is becoming more personal: choose how you learn with online courses, personal learning networks, social media, and learning opportunities outside of the old brick and mortar buildings we are used to. Change is difficult especially for schools. We need to all pull together to make this work for our children.

This lens is for all of us to look at the future of learning and realistically come up with new strategies, designs, and opportunities for students to meet their learning goals so they can reach their full potential.

What You and I See

I joined 365 Days - a photo a day. Tough to keep up with it but plan to share all the photos from this set. Very interesting what people share if they are putting up what they see.
