What is the 3.0 learning system? It is a continuous learning system for all learners
as a fixture in flexible and multiple school learning environments. Emerging digital technologies will continue to
create an “abundance” of improvements for accessing knowledge, for obtaining
skills, for improving instruction and for improving self. The 3.0 education environment will feature
the following in our schoolhouses in the near future:
·
A
flexible 24/7 blended learning system for all students available through mobile
technology devices, online coursework, digital textbooks, digital curriculum
resources, software/apps, social networking and a flexible brick and mortar
classroom
·
Individual
education plans for all students with access to “instant” student achievement
data for guiding and intervening with student achievement needs
·
A
“move on when ready” system that seeks to promote and move students to higher
achievement levels when academically and emotionally prepared
·
A
K-12 college/career ready curriculum with rigor reinforced throughout with
instructional best practices that
include constant checks for understanding, extensive writing, student
engagement practices and student self-accountability practices
·
A
K-12 system that regularly assesses students for college/career achievement and
skill benchmarks
·
A
community that implements a birth-age 4 program accessing and supporting all
infants toward school readiness development resources.
·
A
24/7 professional development program for educators to access and participate
working within a continuous, collaborative professional learning environment
·
A
consistent system of student support, during and after the school year, recognizing that for all learners “ learning
is constant, time is the variable”
·
A
system that recognizes and empowers staff and students to practice the power
and energy of “high expectations” for “deeper learning.”
