Implementation of Grant in this School:
Technology/digital learning will be used in our school to:
Give teachers more digital resources to help them reach their Profession Growth Goals relative to their CSIP and help aid in student academic growth outlined in the CSIP.
Provide students with quality comprehensive educational experiences that enable them to develop the productive habits of life-long learners. Our students will be able to think critically and creatively, learn independently and in collaboration with others, value ethical behavior, and develop skills needed to function in a technologically changing and diverse world.
Personalized, Deep, and Authentic 21st Century Learning Using Digital Tools
Our purpose is to achieve high levels of learning for every student through focused and proven instructional practices that engage, enhance, and extend learning through appropriate and targeted use of digital strategies, resources, and tools. We can accomplish our plans as we build the capacity of our schools through a phased implementation designed to meet each school where they are and support them through the transformation process. The process and associated learning outcomes are only possible because of grant funding.
Our three-phase system of support is designed for all schools levels to build capacity, commitment, engagement, and self-accountability. Stage 1 schools will engage in LMS use, building initial capacity to provide digitally supported instruction in recuperation for stage progression. Stage II schools will explore the potential of focused digitally supported practices and prototype their effectiveness for learners, then hone those practices. Stage III schools focus on three key areas that are based on Universal Design for Learning. They are:
Personalized Learning (Mastery - Engage)
Future Ready Skill Sets (Autonomy - Enhance)
Deeper Learning (Purpose - Extend)
These three approaches correlate to Utah's Portrait of a Graduate, Universal Design for Learning, Triple-E, and Metiri's Way Forward.
This staged progression aligns to Utah's vision and guiding principles for digital and personalized learning as outlined in Essential Elements. Stage III schools engage stakeholders in the process of transforming learning through a culture where innovation is the norm, future-ready skills are developed and practiced, and deeper levels of personalized learning is the new status quo. Digital resources such as our district LMS and tool such as Chromebooks will support designed content that is personalized. Learners will also utilize these resources and tools to demonstrate conceptual mastery by creating products, developing authentic solutions, and showcasing their learning. This prepares our schools to measure achievement in the broader sense of Utah's Portrait of a Graduate.
This level of trans formation is complex and will take time to change culture so digital is not seen as separate, additional, or magical. Instead digital will be used when and where it will positively impact learning. This guided our rationale for developing, and implementing a staged process of transformation that integrates the core components of our LEA's strategic plan and guiding frameworks. The Digital Learning, Professional Learning, and Educator Effectiveness frameworks support our indicators, visible in the plan's four cornerstones, which support our transition process. The cornerstones are learning, culture, community, and partnerships. In the learning cornerstone, we created the following three indicators:
1. Commitment to ensure high levels of learning.
2. Incorporation of the appropriate Future Ready skills into curriculum.
3. Collaborative effort to ensure targeted, personalized learning experiences.
These learning indicators of our strategic plan directly correlate with our three intermediate outcomes, which in turn point to our primary long-time outcome that by 2025, learners in digital transformation schools will demonstrate deep knowledge and applied learning as demonstrated by a 5% increase in learner competency. This support our LEA purpose of ensuring high levels of learning for every student.

Stage 1 schools will engage in LMS use, building initial capacity to provide digitally supported instruction in recuperation for stage progression. Stage II schools will explore the potential of focused digitally supported practices and prototype their effectiveness for learners, then hone those practices. Stage III schools focus on three key areas that are based on Universal Design for Learning. They are:
Personalized Learning (Mastery - Engage)
Future Ready Skill Sets (Autonomy - Enhance)
Deeper Learning (Purpose - Extend)
These three approaches correlate to Utah's Portrait of a Graduate, Universal Design for Learning, Triple-E, and Metiri's Way Forward.
This staged progression aligns to Utah's vision and guiding principles for digital and personalized learning as outlined in Essential Elements. Stage III schools engage stakeholders in the process of transforming learning through a culture where innovation is the norm, future-ready skills are developed and practiced, and deeper levels of personalized learning is the new status quo. Digital resources such as our district LMS and tool such as Chromebooks will support designed content that is personalized. Learners will also utilize these resources and tools to demonstrate conceptual mastery by creating products, developing authentic solutions, and showcasing their learning. This prepares our schools to measure achievement in the broader sense of Utah's Portrait of a Graduate.
This level of trans formation is complex and will take time to change culture so digital is not seen as separate, additional, or magical. Instead digital will be used when and where it will positively impact learning. This guided our rationale for developing, and implementing a staged process of transformation that integrates the core components of our LEA's strategic plan and guiding frameworks. The Digital Learning, Professional Learning, and Educator Effectiveness frameworks support our indicators, visible in the plan's four cornerstones, which support our transition process. The cornerstones are learning, culture, community, and partnerships. In the learning cornerstone, we created the following three indicators:
1. Commitment to ensure high levels of learning.
2. Incorporation of the appropriate Future Ready skills into curriculum.
3. Collaborative effort to ensure targeted, personalized learning experiences.
These learning indicators of our strategic plan directly correlate with our three intermediate outcomes, which in turn point to our primary long-time outcome that by 2025, learners in digital transformation schools will demonstrate deep knowledge and applied learning as demonstrated by a 5% increase in learner competency. This support our LEA purpose of ensuring high levels of learning for every student.
