Gloria Academy is all about passion and innovation! Key to most Gloria publications and workshops are computer assisted language learning (CALL), differentiated cooperative learning (CL), intercultural communication, and neuroscience-based cognitive structures.
You have probably heard of some popular digital multimodal composing (DMC), innovative, cooperative learning, and intercultural communication structures including differentiated KUD, KWL, DMC, Paideia Seminars, Literature Circles, Targeted Doodling, Play Circles, Third Space, TSLC, Blogging-based DMC, WebQuest-based DMC, Online-Poster-based DMC, Wiki-based DMC, and Neuroscience-based information processing.
Gloria structures make every learner a critical thinker. Learners engage actively in critical thinking alongside their educators. The more learners interact and communicate with their peers and curriculum, the deeper they achieve. Gloria structures bridge achievement gaps, stimulate critical thinking, and facilitate neuroscience-based learning to reach every student.
