The objective of this session is to introduce participants to a software review rubric aligned to ISTE standards as well as introduce participants to blended learning solutions they may not recognize or be aware of. We would like to have round table room. We will first introduce the rubric and share blended learning framework as published by Heather Staker and Michael Horn. Several for profit companies have been invited to participate in this session so that participants will have actual software to review during the session. After reviewing the rubric and discussing blended learning effective practices, participants will be able to review software with a representative from the software company available to answer any questions. It is not a pitch session but rather an opportunity for the participants to learn more about software review with tools and experts in the room.
