Event Description:
Back by popular demand, BlendED 2025 is our annual virtual mini-conference that brings together educators from across the country to celebrate innovation in instruction.
Join us for two dynamic hours of idea-sharing, classroom inspiration, and real talk about what it means to teach in today’s blended learning environments. Whether you’re brand new to blended learning or looking to take your practice to the next level, you’ll hear directly from teachers and school leaders who are creatively integrating technology to boost student engagement and outcomes.
This year’s theme spotlights practical strategies that work, with sessions that highlight small moves with big impact, tools that make planning and feedback easier, and school-wide systems that support sustainable change. Attendees will walk away with ready-to-use ideas and a renewed sense of purpose.
Join us as we continue to celebrate and learn from these exceptional educators, exploring the dynamic capabilities of collective expertise in shaping the future of education!
