Differentiating in a 1:1 Learning Enivronment

by Colleen Worrell, Secondary Technology Integration Coordinator

I read a recent blog post on a great website, Free Technology for Teachers. Written by guest blogger Clint Winter, an Instructional Technology Specialist with the Clarke County School District in Athens, GA,  "Good Chrome Extensions for Students with Disabilities"  reinforces a belief we at HHS share: "Differentiation is a crucial part in a 1:1 environment." Winter has practical tips that reveal how, in his words, "Chrome extensions are dismantling barriers that have long been put in place."

Chrome Speak App

I encourage all students, particularly those with learning challenges, to read this blog post and explore some of the free applications offered by Google and Chrome, that make the 1:1 environment accessible to everyone.
