Study: Teachers Willing To Earn Micro-Credentials.


Education Week (10/20, Doran) reports in its “Digital Education” blog that a study by non-profit Digital Promise found that, once they were informed of the opportunity to do so, nearly two-thirds of teachers polled responded that they would be at least “somewhat likely” to pursue micro-credentials.
