Together for Learning


The Together for Learning vision is coming alive.
The T4L website provides a collaborative learning space to create, share, celebrate and lead best practice as schools realize the power of the Learning Commons.

All members of the learning community will discover powerful ideas about teaching and learning in today's information and technology rich environment.
 		  

 
 

A Learning Commons is a vibrant, whole-school approach, presenting exciting opportunities for collaboration among teachers, teacher-librarians and students. Within a Learning Commons, new relationships are formed between learners, new technologies are realized and utilized, and both students and educators prepare for the future as they learn new ways to learn.
