The Learning Designers Interviews
Rocky View Schools is full of Innovators who design engaging learning. As we navigated teaching and learning during #RVSedLearningFromHome, we wanted to connect with some of the teachers who are trailblazing a path forward for their students and schools. As we develop new and creative ways to support our learners, many of us discovered new tools and practices that we will likely keep well into the future. Enjoy this engaging series of interviews with RVS teachers captured on Zoom during the school closures in spring 2020. Learn more about all the projects in our Archives.
