Breakout EDU: Digital
You have probably heard the buzz about Breakout EDU. But have you experienced a Digital Breakout? In some ways, this form of breakout is more conducive to the "average” school room. No classroom set-up is required, students work in collaborative teams on a shared device, and there are no issues with those pesky locks! In this webinar, participants will experience a digital breakout and be informed of the steps that it takes to create one. If you are "game,” you can then sign up for a 6-hour online course where you will learn how to build your own and can get individual attention from the instructor to make it happen. Yes, there are some "canned” breakouts online, but if you want one that is customized to your class and discipline, you will gain much in creating your own. They may take some time and thought to create, but once you have done the legwork, they can be used over and over with students. They provide the same engaged learning experiences for students that traditional Breakouts involve - critical thinking, teamwork and complex problem solving.
Registered participants will receive Zoom connection information via email prior to session start.

Welcome to LHRIC Instructional Technology
The purpose of the Instructional Technology department at the LHRIC is to foster a community of professionals through the exchange of ideas and leverage creative and innovative use of technology in a global collaborative environment for the advancement of all learners.
We provide professional development for teachers and administrators that is differentiated for each learner, each classroom, each school, and district. We aim to spark the innovation, creativity, reflection and enthusiasm for teaching and learning that brought them into education in the first place. Our approach to professional development design ensures that experiences are scalable, replicable, relevant, and the experiences are fun! We offer job embedded cohorts, online courses, workshops, webinars, professional learning communities, peer to peer sessions, on demand coaching, vendor run sessions, and more. Our ultimate goal is to make sure each adult learner has the skills and requisite knowledge to effectively amp up their practice through the integration of technology resources. Reach out to learn more about any of our services, programs or just to inquire about trends and experiences.
