Starting with gotLearning
When: August 30th 4:00pm-5:00pm ET (register)
What: This workshop is more pedagogical than it is technical. We will demonstrate how to set up your classes etc. But will spend the majority of time in how to use gotLearning in the Teaching and Learning Cycle. You can easily start with gotLearning just for one feedback cycle. This cycle will allow you to see the power and ease of use of gotLearning . This session will focus on how to have students post their learning evidence, demonstrate how to provide feedback (teacher feedback and peer feedback), view revisions and manage assignments.

Ηow gotLearning Works
Students
One place for students to share their learning evidence, receive feedback from teachers and fellow students. The learning evidence can be from their favorite digital tools or notebooks, papers or projects which can be scanned via the gotLearning mobile app.
Teachers
gotLearning helps teachers focus on student learning. No longer do teachers have to search notebooks, online folders, video web apps or email attachments to continue their learning conversations. Finally, this learning data is all in one place!
Specialists
Educational specialists can view and participate in student’s learning conversations and see the overall picture of the student’s learning journey. Whether you are facilitating your own class or supporting students across multiple classrooms this tool captures the learning evidence needed to show growth over time.
School Administrators
As school leaders, you can keep your finger on the educational pulse in your classrooms. You are able to follow and support any of your students and their learning. You can also use Professional Conversations to capture learning and growth within your school’s professional communities.
