This workshop introduces teachers to the innovative use of HyperDocs, which are more than digital documents with hyperlinks—they represent a pedagogical shift from lesson planning to lesson designing. Participants will explore the critical elements of creating interactive digital lessons that integrate the 4Cs: Critical Thinking, Creativity, Collaboration, and Communication. Emphasizing Universal Design for Learning principles, the session shows how HyperDocs can personalize instruction for diverse learners while still aligning with academic standards. The workshop is platform-independent and adaptable for both Google and Office 365 users, making it flexible for a wide range of classrooms.
