news and announcements
Digital Classroom: Please know your teachers and administration are working to create a productive plan for our next steps. This will take a couple of days. Online learning will start officially, Thursday (3/19). You will need to frequently check-in on this website and will be expected to use Schoology.com. We will also be using our Collections (Online Textbook), Turnitin.com accounts for discussion boards and published writing AND Google Docs frequently. You will also be expected to check-in daily with me:) I will be using a platform called Zoom for virtual conferences and asking each of you to create a SCHOOLOGY.com account (it's free). Click on your class page on this website to access the class codes needed to create your account. Do this as soon as possible please:) You will need internet capabilities. Please be assured, the school district is working on a plan to provide this to everyone. IF this is not a possibility, your parent can contact me and we will set up an alternate avenue. I will post a weekly module sheet (located on each class page) with objectives, assignments and due dates.
While this won't be seamless, it is very doable! Trust me... I have taught an on-line college class. It's not perfect, but it works! We will all need patience and communication. Yes, we will be flexible. Yes, we will be frustrated at times. Yes, we will look at this as a great learning opportunity to expand our independent learning skills and gain confidence in acquiring new skills. Keep reading - keep writing - keep learning - keep believing in the good of others - and keep believing in yourself!
I am excited for you to get a chance to practice this real-world college and workplace skill of online productivity and learning:)
