Today is Digital Learning Day!  Coast-to-coast parents, students, and teachers will be joining together in celebration of the first day devoted to innovation in the classroom.

To celebrate, the Alliance for Excellent Education will be hosting a webcast on innovative learning  At 1 p.m. EST, AEE will be hosting a national town hall meeting with FCC Chairman Julius Genachowski and U.S. Secretary of Education Arne Duncan.  The town hall will focus on innovative educational projects happening across the country.

Innovative educational options provide students with an alternative to the traditional classroom lecture.  By blending the technology students are accustomed to in their everyday lives into their lessons, students are able to receive a more customized and cutting-edge education.
