When I facilitate workshops on this model, I describe it as a sequence of learning activities designed to move students toward a specific learning goal or objective.

We teach beautifully diverse groups of students with various skill levels, needs, language proficiencies, and learning preferences. I remember facilitating workshops on blended learning models and universally designed learning to provide students with flexible pathways.
