Blending it Up: One District's Journey Towards Personalized Learning Over the last three years, Uinta County School District #1 (Evanston, WY) has been rolling out a district-wide initiative to implement blended learning and personalized instruction for all K-12 students. We have had major successes and setbacks along the way, and we have learned a lot about what it takes to move school- and district-wide technology initiatives forward. If you are experimenting with blended learning, going 1:1, or just want ideas for using technology to improve instruction in your school/district, this session is for you. Come learn from administrators, teachers, coaches from UCSD #1 about what it takes to make personalized learning work for your kids.
