Teachers, Administrators, Technology Coordinators/Directors and Students can design their own Individual Learning Plans (ILPs) and actively participate in the development and management of their own professional learning. Based on current proficiency levels, educators and students can choose the target proficiency level in different categories they wish to attain. Participants can also view resources available to them in their school or district, to help reach their desired target levels. Additionally, ILPs can be then be sent via email to technology coordinators, mentors, or school leaders for on-going coaching and accountability.
