Overview:
A Self-Organized Learning Environment, or SOLE, can exist anywhere there is a computer, Internet connection, and students who are ready to learn. Within a SOLE, students are given the freedom to learn collaboratively using the Internet. SOLE sessions are characterized by discovery, sharing, spontaneity and limited teacher intervention. Every SOLE session activates the learners’ creativity, requires critical thinking, and refines communication skills.
A certificate of completion for 4.5 contact hours will be provided.
This PD meets core competencies outlined in Ohio's Operating Standards for Gifted Education.
