Identity Crisis! Creating the Conditions and Mindsets for Personalized Learning

Ian Jones • Cahn Fellow 2023

At Denver Online, we have been leading our school through an identity crisis - from a blended learning environment to a greatly expanded virtual “solution” in response to the COVID-19 pandemic, to our true identity as a multi-modal personalized hub for education and opportunity. This project introduces the reader to the leadership actions of the past and present, while exploring future avenues for Denver Online to lead a strategy for schools to reinvent themselves by embracing a “digital backbone” for learning as a strategy for personalization.
