Discover the Possibilities! Read the Discover Phase Summary -- (Résumé de la phase Analyse - en Français). Explore what distributed learning could look like for Alberta students and compare their learning experiences from a broad continuum of possibilities. Click here for full-screen view.
Distributed learning is a model which offers multiple channels of learning and teaching through a variety of delivery formats and mediums—print, digital (online), and face-to-face classroom delivery methods—allowing teachers, students, and content to be located in different, non-centralized locations. Distributed learning connects students with teachers across the province, and in so doing, provides choice, flexibility, and authentic learning experiences. Distributed learning includes all forms of learning where, by design, students and their teachers may be separated in time and/or space for some or all of their interactions. It offers the potential of exploring different relationships and building highly personalized and individualized learning opportunities for student success, as well as expanding teacher expertise to critically influence and support student learning. This definition does not preclude face-to-face interactions between students and their teachers.
