Navigate 2 - Tools for Deciding on an LMS

The LMS that I think is the best is the Blackboard Learning Managements System. It meets the needs of all the important stakeholders in a school. For students, it makes sure that the learners can have access to the system whether though mobile capability or an offline version that doesn’t require internet. For teachers, it provides opportunity to easily differentiate the classroom. It also provides an assistant that can help teachers with instruction by automating certain parts of the lesson simultaneously. The IT department will have an easier job with data because of the SIS integration which allows easy seamless integration and allow data to flow easily between the student and the Blackboard Classroom. For the administration, the system can easily be implemented with all the training being provided by Blackboard as well as having a bi-directional information system to ensure a smooth transition. For the developer, Blackboard’s design for mobile apps enable learners to interact and learn anytime, anywhere. I think Blackboard aligns with vision of growth for my organization because it consolidates a lot of learning tools into one simple and easy system.

Also the AB courses will have more content to cover over time so it is vital that the pacing is set in advanced and that there is constant communication to ensure that the students are keeping up.

In the roster, it is clear that the teacher had several students that need special attention when planning for instruction. two students will need 504 accommodations and one student will require time for accelerations since she is gifted. The students also have different session lengths, so it is important to ensure that students who have less weeks, still get all the required content that is needed to be learned.  In this communication  log, the teacher sends out general informatio...

Open Educational Resource - A resource that can be used while teaching, learning, researching and in assessment. It is can be accessed freely and have open licensing for different media and documents format. The biggest challenge when using OER is that many sources are "labeled" as open licensing with free usage but will originate from non free licensed sources, which is still against copyright laws.

Communicate 3 - Feedback

Great job of completing the geometry unit! You have mastered many of the standards well including knowing the angle relationships and the angle definitions. Also, you showed mastery in volume and surface area—which can be tricky, but you were able to learn it with ease. Please take the time to review how to find missing angles in triangles with this video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YnDeYhBoCzs . Also, https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=caspFRZfWeI is a video that can help with finding missing angles in polygons. Lastly, remember to review the difference between area and the circumference formulas. You did a fine job in finding the circumference, but the question asked for area. You are very close in showing mastery for this unit, and I believe you will get there! If you have any questions or concerns, please contact me.
