The changing face of online learning

Increasingly, school districts adopt online learning to meet one need and quickly find new opportunities to expand the initiative to help other students. That’s the changing nature of online learning, exemplified in the experience at Spotsylvania County Public Schools in Virginia. Join us for a case study examining how Spotsylvania began using Aventa Learning by K12 for credit recovery in an alternative school and soon expanded its use for a variety of purposes in all five of its high schools.

Topics to be covered include:

  • How teachers can customize online courses for individual students
  • Using online courses in a blended model with classroom teachers
  • How online courses used for credit recovery can reduce the need for summer school
  • Moving online courses beyond credit recovery to help all students take classes that don’t fit in their schedule, or AP courses not offered by the school


Scheduled speakers:
Janis Streich, Director of Instructional Technology and Professional Learning, Spotsylvania County Public Schools, Virginia
Bruce Lovett, Vice President, K12

Who will benefit:
Superintendents, curriculum directors, technology coordinators and other district leaders with responsibility for online learning. Anyone may attend.
