It's Digital Learning Day!


It's Digital Learning Day today and school across the country are celebrating it in different ways.  

I came across some great resources to help celebrate DLD.


The official Digital Learning Day site is http://www.digitallearningday.org/ with tons of ideas for lessons and activities.

There is also a Facebook page for the site: https://www.facebook.com/NationalDigitalLearningDay

You can also find them on Twitter: https://twitter.com/OfficialDLDay 


Edutopia has also complied a webpage full of DLD resources.  You can find that page here.


PBS is offering free resources for DLD called PBS Learning Media. You can that site here.


TechSmith has a page of resources including two free live webcasts today, February 5, 2014.  Their page also includes videos and a link to TechSmith's Pinterest boards which have a ton of DLD resources.  You can get to TechSmith's DLD resource page here



JogNog, a digital learning app for Science education is sponsoring a nation wide contest that begins today, February 5, 2014 on DLD and runs for 2 weeks.  JogNog hopes to promote learning in science through this contest.  Contest details can be found here.


Edgenuity sponsored a video contest earlier this year to highlight online and blended learning success.  The winning videos were announced today and can be found here.

Are you doing anything special to celebrate Digital Learning Day?

  1. Wow....you have tons of great resources on her for DLD! Honestly....I had never heard of it before. It's too bad we have a snow day today.....maybe next year I can get my school on board.

    1. I think this is the first year for DLD. I didn't get to do anything special this year either, (except a short morning announcement) but wanted to be sure to save these links so that I could really celebrate next year. I think it would be fun to do some of the suggested activities. =)
