HyperDocs

I'm in the first cohort for the online learning group called "HyperDoc Boot Camp." It's hosted and run by Lisa Highfill, Kelly Hilton and Sarah Landis. I saw Lisa present at a conference last year, and have been wanting to try HyperDocs, but just didn't have the time (or energy) to try to figure it out on my own. Thankfully they're guiding a group of us on this journey!

I highly recommend this online class the next time it comes around. In the meantime, check out their book, "The HyperDoc Handbook; Digital Lesson Design Using Google Apps."

Day one is done, and here's what I've learned....

Lesson 1: What is a HyperDoc?

Transformative, interactive Google Docs that replace the standard worksheet method of delivering instruction.

A HyperDoc shifts the focus from teacher-led lectures to student-driven, inquiry-based learning allowing students to actually learn through exploration.  

The reason HyperDocs work is because each one begins with a strong lesson design, curates quality instructional content, and packages learning in a way that engages learners.

The role of the teacher changes from lecturer to facilitator.
