The Cutting Ed Podcast show

Summary: This weeks podcast is with Lynnae Liese—the Personalized Learning Coordinator at New Rockford-Sheyenne. <br><br>The school recently started a Personalized Learning Academy—empowering students and giving them voice and choice in their learning. Lies says its an opt-in program where students choose three or four courses they want to study. An instructor is there one period of the day acting as a coach—allowing the students to take on their own learning choosing what they want to learn and when they want to learn. Lies says collaboration is a huge part of the learning environment.<br><br>Liese will talk about how and why the program began and offer advice for other districts who may want to look into a similar program.<br><br>Resources:<br><a href="http://www.teddintersmith.com" rel="noopener">http://www.teddintersmith.com</a><br><a href="http://www.ndunited.org/thecuttinged" rel="noopener">http://www.ndunited.org/thecuttinged</a><br><br>Twitter:<br>@thecuttinged<br>@NDDPI<br>@tdintersmith<br>@bistom<br>@PrairiePublicEd
