Core Principles of Effective Blended Classrooms

Adopt instructional delivery models that maximize small group or one-on-one time with students to deliver more personalized interaction.

Incorporate differentiation into all facets of instructional practice to create a more student-centered learning experience. (e.g. management, planning, assessment, instruction).Leverage digital content and assessments to help measure students' true level of academic proficiency.

Support students' ability to learn, grow, and function independently from the teacher to achieve their personal academic goals.

What is RtI? The Definition, according to the NC DPI Website,:

“…Responsiveness to Instruction (NCRtI) is a multi-tiered framework which promotes school improvement through engaging, high quality instruction. NCRtI employs a team approach to guide

educational practices, using a problem-solving model based on data, to address student needs and maximize growth for all.”

Blended learning dovetails perfectly with RtI!

1 – Plan where you are going and

2 - the route you will use.

3 – Ask, “How you know you got there?”

4 – What do you do if you took a wrong turn and you are not at your destination?

5 – What do you do with the students who have already been to that location?

• Purpose: – Set goals in individual classrooms and across the school

– To measure progress in implementing BL, semester by semester and year by year

• Assumptions:• The BL Rubric is a supplement, not a replacement, to your existing teacher rubric

• Language is intentionally broad to provide room for interpretation and innovation

• We will work on the rubric in PLC’s in September.
