Learning Target

I can use the Blended Learning Rubric to identify my skill sets and opportunities for growth in terms of implementation of blended learning instruction.

Education Elements, Inc. | BMS PD

Purpose: Blended Learning Rubric is designed to help teachers :

Set goals in individual classrooms and across the school

To identify areas of strength and for development in BL classrooms

To measure progress in implementing BL, semester by semester and year by year

Assumptions:The BL Rubric is a supplement, not a replacement, to your existing teacher rubric

Language is intentionally broad to provide room for interpretation and innovation.

NOT Evaluative, but reflective. Helps support/supplement your NC Teacher Evaluation

Core Principles of Effective Blended Classrooms

Adopt instructional delivery models that maximize small group or one-on-one time with students to deliver more personalized interaction.

Incorporate differentiation into all facets of instructional practice to create a more student-centered learning experience. (e.g. management, planning, assessment, instruction).Leverage digital content and assessments to help measure students' true level of academic proficiency.

Support students' ability to learn, grow, and function independently from the teacher to achieve their personal academic goals.
