I designed this Go & Show presentation to do more than deliver information—it’s meant to model what meaningful, blended professional learning can look and feel like. As someone who supports two diverse, high-needs campuses, I understand how quickly the year fills with competing demands, and how traditional PD often becomes passive, one-size-fits-all, and disconnected from the classroom.

This launch session kicks off our Techultura Innovation Plan by demonstrating how professional learning can be blended, hands-on, and collaborative. It reflects my belief that educators deserve learning experiences that are relevant, empowering, and immediately applicable—anchored in the same digital tools and instructional strategies we want to see in classrooms.

By starting with a Go & Show format, I aim to model instructional strategies that invite exploration, encourage ownership, and spark conversations. When teachers see it, try it, and reflect together, they’re not just learning a new tool—they’re experiencing a culture of learning that values practice, voice, and professional agency.

This is the heartbeat of Techultura: a shared commitment to blending technology with culture, and professional learning with real-world teaching—right from day one.

Vision & Learning Framework

To guide the Techultura learning experience, we developed a Big Hairy Audacious Goal (BHAG) and a detailed 3-Column Table using Fink’s Taxonomy. These elements frame the why, what, and how of our strategy—ensuring learning is purposeful, sustained, and empowering for every educator across both campuses.

Creating an Effective Learning Environment

This professional learning experience launches the school year by introducing Techultura—our campus-wide approach that blends technology integration with shared culture and expectations. Techultura reflects both the digital tools we use and the collaborative mindset we value. This course sets the foundation for consistent, effective tech practices across classrooms, ensuring alignment with instructional goals and communication systems.

Grounded in five key practices of effective professional learning, this experience provides a supportive, hands-on environment tailored to meet the real needs of our educators. By the end, participants will leave with the clarity, confidence, and tools needed to navigate campus systems and bring our vision of tech-integrated learning to life.

Blending Culture & Technology with Purpose

At the heart of Techultura is the belief that technology and campus culture must work in harmony to create meaningful, inclusive, and empowering learning experiences for everyone. These learner expectations are more than a checklist—they are a reflection of the learning community we’re building together through a blended learning model that values both flexibility and connection.

Each principle reflects the values that guide our work: showing up with intention, collaborating with purpose, embracing growth, and supporting one another. We all bring unique strengths, backgrounds, and levels of tech experience—and that diversity is what fuels our learning culture.

Through synchronous/asynchronous tech tutorials, live PD sessions, ongoing coaching, and peer modeling, Techultura supports multiple entry points for professional learning. Teachers engage at their own pace while remaining part of a larger, collaborative effort. This blended approach helps us anchor our practice in shared expectations, while also honoring the different paths each educator takes toward tech integration.

These expectations are not about compliance—they’re about collective impact. Together, we build trust, confidence, and momentum.

¡Juguemos Techultura! Let’s make this year a celebration of learning, growth, and support—one login, one conversation, and one breakthrough at a time.
