6th District Blog
(Our town hall meetings are different than traditional town hall meetings. We don’t just talk. The goal is to add evidence to the Community Library.)
We use the Blog as the way to add evidence to the Library. The Goal in each Blog Post is to try to add new evidence to the Library by creating new Blockchains or Modifying existing blockchains.
Then, once the evidence is in the Community Library then teachers, leaders, or project members can use the evidence to build classes, discussions, or project plans.
The key is that the Learning Community provides “Meta-data” to the evidence so it can be more easily accessed.
