Expanded Learning Opportunities Resources

Expanded Learning Opportunities

ELO is an innovative learning and teaching platform designed to ignite the unique potential of every child through the creating and delivery of dramatically customized learning experiences. ELO creatively and systematically integrates a vast range of new and existing teaching and learning tools, resources, modules, and approaches into more personalized, engaging, and relevant learning experiences that tap into each student’s passions, interests, and learning styles inside and outside the classroom. ELO enhances educator effectiveness and the use of existing resources to improve student outcomes. It creates competent, confident learners who are more empowered, better supported, and fully prepared for education, careers, and life.

Expanded Learning Opportunities Pilot Program

CLF’s ELO pilot program is focused on the development of local proof points surrounding Colorado’s vision for expanded learning tied to improved student outcomes and increased educator effectiveness. CLF has identified four ELO pilot district partnerships for the 2011-12 school year, including efforts to reorganize the school day and/or year, and restructure the use of time, technology and community partners to expand student learning and teacher collaboration time.
