Who owns the learning
WTE teachers will use Who Owns the Learning: Preparing Students for Success in the Digital Age by Alan November to challenge our thinking about teaching and learning. As the world around us continues to change, educators must consider whether our assignments are helping to prepare students for their future. It is not necessarily about how much technology you have in your building. Rather, we need to examine our mindset as we design instructional opportunities and implement curriculum.
