Plans for more Collaboration at Digital Learning Day

In a time when pre-teens have Instagram accounts, and tablets readers have become the 4th screen (after TV, laptops, and smart phones), digital learning takes on new meaning.

For next month’s Digital learning Day, I plan to introduce students to some tools and processes that would prepare them for college and careers.

  • Webinars
  • Podcasts
  • Book Trailers
  • Wikis
  • Content Aggregation

Building on last year’s #DLDAY activities, adding more collaboration this year, means showing students the opportunities of collaborating with even those outside the walls of a school. I am thinking of technology experts, and students in another school –even in another country!

Yes, most schools have walled gardens, for good reason. Occasionally we pierce these walls, and #DLDay is that time of year when we could try out new things.

Suggestions are welcome!
