Community Engagement
e2L will facilitate a locally-developed blended learning vision for all students in the Blended Learning Grant Program; one that truly represents the hopes and desires of the community. e2L uses a process, rooted in a foundation of design thinking and backward design, to ensure the greatest number of voices are heard. This process focuses the conversation on what the community of stakeholders desires for the learner, the necessary skills to achieve those hopes, and the type of blended learning experience necessary to develop those skills.
Blended Learning Strategic Design
The e2L team is nationally known for its process in bringing people together to design an actionable and measurable blended learning solution. The e2L team will facilitate a district determined Design Team of up to 40 key stakeholders to design all the elements of a blended learning innovation framework. The design team can be composed of leadership from Central Administration, Curriculum and Instruction, Instructional Coaches, along with campus administrators, teachers, students, and community members. This process empowers district leaders to move forward in the same direction, with common language and understanding. This unity allows for all involved to communicate more effectively, builds a sense of team, and ensures all decision-making is highly intentional and systematic, allowing for both innovation and achievement to prevail.
I can’t say thank you enough to engage2Learn for all of the guidance and support we had in the development and alignment of this framework …and I am excited to see how this learning experience positively impacts the future for all of our students at Uvalde CISD.

Professional Development Plan for Blended Learning
The PD Plan for Blended Learning service includes two programs: Blended Learning Trainer-of-Trainer (ToT) Academy and Blended Learning Leadership Academy.
Blended Learning ToT Academy
Throughout the ToT, e2L will facilitate a team of leaders to design teacher training to support the implementation of the blended learning initiative. The design of the training will include using the district’s newly designed Blended Learning Innovation Framework© and aligned e2L 12 Life Ready Best Practices© to create a training environment that is collaborative, authentic, challenging, autonomous, truly differentiated, and leads to measurable growth of the identified outcomes.
Blended Learning Leadership Academy
During a 2-day Leadership Academy, we provide leaders with the tools to facilitate the cultural shift necessary for growth. During the academy, e2L facilitators focus on the five ways leaders influence culture in a blended learning environment.
Almost 50 educators, including principals from other Spring ISD campuses and representatives from two other school districts, got to see first-hand what the Spring ISD’s Empowered Learning Model looks like in first and third-grade math classes at Beneke, Ponderosa and Reynolds elementary schools and in grades six through eight at Roberson Middle School.
Blended learning has had a great impact in the classroom. It has taken our students to another level of learning. The engagement component, along with the depth of knowledge that they are working at has positively impacted student learning and student success. The classroom flows smoothly as they learn, and students are having fun at the same time. In addition, the coaching process has also helped teachers take their content expertise to the next level. Teachers are becoming more of a facilitator in the learning process.
