As a result, they are not developing their metacognitive, critical thinking, and self-regulatory skills; all of which are critical to success both in the classroom and beyond.

In my last blog, I focused on the Universal Design for Learning (UDL) principle of representation. I described how blended and online learning can help educators provide opportunities for students to perceived and engage with information presented in multiple modalities.

As schools were compelled to implement distance learning during this year’s pandemic, it became clear that emergency remote learning widened many gaps that already existed within the walls of brick and mortar schools. UDL was an offshoot of a movement that promoted universal design in architecture and product development.

There are several reasons it’s critical to consider balance when designing learning experiences. The person doing the work in a classroom is the person doing the learning. So, students should do the heavy cognitive lift of making meaning and applying their learning.

Blended learning is the thoughtful design and facilitation of learning experiences that strive to shift control from teacher to learner by weaving together active, engaged learning online and offline. It can combine both in-class and online learning at home with the flipped classroom and playlist models.

Teachers got a crash course in creating video content when schools shifted online. They relied on videos out of necessity to explain concepts and model strategies while students learned from home. As teachers transitioned back into classrooms, many abandoned video in favor of live instruction.

The variety of humans in a classroom is remarkable. Universally designing blended learning presents educators with the opportunity to transition from designing a single experience that is teacher-paced and teacher-led to a more flexible experience that gives the students more control over the pace and path.

3 Students are capable of self-directed learning. The insinuation is that students must be monitored in a classroom or in a video conference session to do the work and learn. As Zaretta Hammond said on an episode of VrainWaves , “The student is the center of learning. 1 Relationships need to be our #1 priority.

Each member of the PLC will take what the team created or designed back to their classrooms to implement. Putting teaching teams in charge of their own learning will turn learning from an event into a process and reinforce the mindset that teachers are the “lead learner” in a classroom or on a campus.

Hattie’s and Timperley’s (2007) research on feedback identified it as having a significant impact on student achievement and learning. Despite a growing body of research on the power of feedback, it is easy to neglect in classrooms because teachers feel pressure to cover content. 77, 81–112. doi: 10.3102/003465430298487.

It was one of the first models, along with the flipped classroom, that I could employ in my low-tech classroom. In the early days of my transition to blended learning, I had one Chromebook, which I received after writing a Donor’s Choose project. I have a soft spot for the station rotation model.

Still, the best aspect of using choice boards from a teacher’s perspective is the time and space they create for us in the classroom. The goal of this time from a teacher’s perspective should be to connect with learners and shift more time-consuming teacher tasks, like feedback and grading, into the classroom.
