Tahoma Teachers Embrace Online Learning Opportunity

If you haven’t already, you should check out the posts and teacher comments over at the 10Tech Learn and Earn class blogs. Approximately a quarter of our certificated staff has tuned in for this online learning opportunity. Each week Brandon Betlach (elementary) and Kimberly Allison (secondary) post a topic for teachers to consider and explore. In response, teachers share ideas, questions, and comments related to a prompt. Brandon and Kimberly have been thrilled with the level of thinking, risk-taking, and engagement teachers are showing in their comments. Recently Brandon reflected on his experience as the “presenter” for the elementary section of the class: “I can’t believe how much I’m learning from the teachers!” “It’s true!” Kimberly agrees, “Each week I see teachers post ideas I would have never thought of myself.”

You don’t have to be an “official” member of either class to participate. Anyone can read, learn, and comment. So, what are you waiting for? Check it out now!
