SUMMARY:HyFlex Community of Practice Group
DESCRIPTION:Registration Deadline: NONE; please click the Join Meeting link below to join on the day of the webinar: \nJOIN MEETING >> \nHybrid-Flexible (HyFlex) classes (classes that are taught synchronously in-person with a remote synchronous option) offer students the opportunity to participate online or in the classroom\, but can be intimidating for teachers to implement. Literacy Minnesota and the Support Services Distance Learning team would like to invite you to join a new HyFlex Community of Practice facilitated by Cathy Grady from Hubbs Center (Saint Paul Public Schools) and Kirsten Collins from Literacy Minnesota. \nThis informal group will be a fun place to share and build on our collective knowledge and experience in this new and growing area. We will decide as a group areas for future exploration\, but some options are: exploring HyFlex technology options\, hearing from teachers currently using HyFlex\, and classroom management tips for the HyFlex class. \nThis group will meet online periodically throughout the school year and our next meeting is set for December 14 at 2:30. \nAll meetings will be held in Google Meet and are open to both teachers and managers. No need to sign up\, just use the link above to join!  We look forward to seeing you then!
