Digital Learning Day: February 23rd

Digital Learning Day: Thursday, Feb 23rd


Help celebrate Digital Learning Day in your classroom! 

What is Digital Learning?
Digital Learning is integrating technology to make teaching and learning more
engaging, efficient and effective. Integrating technology helps students develop
21st Century skills that are necessary for them to be  successful 
in their education,
personal and professional lives: empowered learner, digital citizen, knowledge
constructor, innovative designer, computational thinker, creative communicator and
global collaborator (ISTE Student Standards).

Why Celebrate Digital Learning?
Digital Learning Day started 2012 and is a national event where educators celebrate
and showcase 
innovative teaching that leverages technology as a catalyst
for student learning. It's not really about technology tools; it's about highlighting how
technology is transforming teaching and learning!

How Can Your Class Join the Celebration?
  • Tweet about your Digital Learning activities using hashtags: #digitalday728,
    #DLDay and tag @OfficialDLDay.
  • Post tech in action in your classroom on Seesaw or Schoology.
  • Host a Google Hangout or Skype with another class.
  • Have students do a Digital Day promo activity answering questions such as 
    • How does technology impact your learning?
    • What is the future of technology?
  • For more ideas and to see innovative technology integration ideas from other
