In an effort to reimagine the first weeks of school, I decided to use the station rotation model to encourage my new students to interact with one another and learn about our class. I designed a collection of stations to encourage them to explore expectations for conduct, course requirements, goal setting, what it means to collaborate, etc.

As I’ve embraced blended learning, I have transformed many of my whole group, teacher-led lessons into student-centered, student-paced learning experiences using different blended learning models. The playlist model presents students with a sequence of learning activities that they self-pace through.

The playlist, or individual rotation model, is a blended learning model that strives to give students more control over the pace and path of their learning. 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.

In the early days of my transition to blended learning, I had one Chromebook, which I received after writing a Donor’s Choose project. It is a series of stations, or learning activities, that students rotate through. To be considered a blended learning model, at least one station must be an online learning station.
