Digital Learning Update
A goal of the
State Board of Education is for every student in North Carolina to benefit from
a personalized education. The Department’s NC Digital Learning Plan
addresses this goal, and the State Board of Education’s 2016-17 supplemental
budget recommendation includes substantial support for digital learning.
Some
highlights of staff accomplishments to date include the recent release of the
new Digital
Learning and Media Inventory, the development of an RFP to establish
contracts that districts may use to procure devices such as Chromebooks, and
the development of Digital Learning Competencies for School Administrators and
Classroom Teachers. Where the competencies are concerned, staff are soliciting
teacher feedback:

If you have
specific questions about moving digital learning forward in your school, please
feel free to reach out to Verna Lalbeharie, director of digital teaching and
learning for the department. Verna and her staff are available to provide
guidance and support.
