Personalized Learning : What a District Needs to Know Before Starting [Tweetchat]

Join us for an hour of Personalized Learning Tweetchat #PLchat moderated by Anthony Kim @anthonx

Shifting to personalized learning doesn’t happen overnight. Transforming your district into a personalized learning environment is a big change for students, teachers, and administrators.

It takes investment from the leadership of a school district, as well as buy-in from all members of the community. The success of personalized learning often hinges on the capacity of a district to support innovation, encourage risk-taking, and lead a change management effort.

In his two recent articles, Four ways to make Zuckerberg’s $45B investment in personalized learning count, and “It’s Time to Revolutionize the School District”, our CEO Anthony Kim (@anthonx) addresses what a district, and district leadership, need to do to successfully implement personalized learning.

Join Anthony Kim for a tweetchat for our twitter friends, Thursday, 02/18th, 4 pm - 5:00 pm PST to discuss these articles and the issues, challenges, and recommendations that arise from them.
