LEARN

Canyons U Bite-Size PD: LEARN Platform

The Learn Platform is an educational technology management system that allows district leaders, administration, coaches, teachers, parents, and students to see which programs are approved for use in the district. A program labeled “Approved for Use”, means the program follows privacy and security laws protecting student data. Although a program may be approved for use in LEARN, doesn’t always mean the program supports best practices for teaching and learning, and may not be the best tool for classroom use. ● LEARN Platform
