Digital Learning Day: February 13, 2025

Sharing the Love of Learning, Teaching, and Innovation

This year’s Digital Learning Day (DLDay), we’re focusing on how technology connects us, transforms education, and brings “heart” into learning. Together, we’ll spotlight educators, districts, and policymakers who center students in innovative practices, fostering equitable, human-centered learning experiences that inspire curiosity and lifelong learning.  

Why Celebrate DLDay?

DLDay is about recognizing and celebrating incredible digital learning practices that happen each day from coast to coast  teachers and students who are innovating every day through digital learning. It’s a chance to:

  • Celebrate educators who use technology to empower and inspire.
  • Honor students for their creativity and adaptability in a digital world.
  • Showcase schools that foster connection, engagement, and innovation through digital tools.

This is your day to uplift colleagues, share success stories, and demonstrate how digital learning builds relationships, empowers communities, and fuels a love for learning.
