Today DSD Professional Development presented at the Ohio Educational Technology Conference on Blended Learning. The focus of the 90 minute workshop was not talking about Blended Learning but rather how to implement the blended learning program into the classroom. We had 70 people show up for the workshop at 8:00 in the morning on a -24 degree day. Below are just few of the highlights from the workshop.

- The workshop was differentiated into three groups. Group one- teachers who were knew to blended learning, Group two- teachers who knew a little bit about blended learning, and Group three- teachers who were currently using Blended learning
- BlendSpace- I created a BlendSpace guide for the groups to use while they traveled through the different aspects of Blended Learning
- The Lesson Plan template- the teachers used and explored the lesson plan template that helps to create a blended learning environment
- Applying Studio- Giving students time to show off what they know and to create a project. The projects don't always have to last for days but instead can take a couple of minutes to create. Here are just a few quick tools to use with the Application Studio
- Tools- Haiku Deck, Voki, Smore, Venn Diagram
- The favorite app of the session was Newsela- a tool to help with the nonfiction reading
