Overview
Verizon Innovative Learning Schools in the 1:1 Device Model receive devices (Chromebooks) for all students, teachers, and administrators in the school building. Each device is equipped with a data plan that provides always-available access outside of the classroom. Schools select a full-time coach dedicated to providing teachers with the pedagogical support to effectively leverage technology in the classroom. Digital Promise’s professional learning team designs customized professional learning for each school based on intensive planning and collaboration with school leaders; builds capacity in each school-based coach to lead instructional change throughout the school; and identifies appropriate resources and opportunities to support teachers at varied levels of readiness.
