From Ditch That Textbook
"Interactive notebooks have taken lots of classrooms everywhere by storm. The idea: a central space where students can create, write and make meaning.
When they’re done well, students get that spark of excitement. Learning goes to a different level.
When they’re done poorly, it becomes worksheets glued to pages.
Interactive notebooks don’t have to go in paper notebooks, though.
This is why we've partnered with Matt Miller and Ditch that Textbook to give you a digital interactive notebook made in Canva that incorporates EduProtocols. It's a win-win!"
