We'll share our journey in blended and personalized learning from the admin, coach, teacher, technology specialist, parent and student perspectives. From our beginning foray with classes, books, Twitter chats and research to piloting with small groups of teachers, branching out to K-5, and now piloting in middle school, we'll show you how we did it.
