Book Study with Jed Stefanowicz
Take AIM at Digital Learning: Activate, Innovate, Motivate
Feel the need to reconnect and re-engage with meaningful technology integration? Join this book study to Take AIM and activate content, innovate instruction, and motivate learners. Exploring domains of digital learning (wellness, competency, creativity), participants will take a deep dive into digital learning practices in order to rethink the way things have always been done in order to redesign what kids are doing and reimagine how learning looks in your space.
We will use Google Classroom as a class platform for ease of communication and to facilitate flexibility in connecting and completing asynchronous activities.
Jed’s new book “Take AIM at Digital Learning: Activate, Innovate, Motivate” is included as part of the registration fee. Educators who register by July 12th will be sent a copy of the book to the address provided during registration.
**Exciting opportunity: After the conclusion of the book study cycle, there will be the opportunity for all participants to participate in a showcase session at the MassCUE Fall Conference to actually meet in-person, share your voices, and showcase your work from this study!
