H1N1


NYC HI N1/Quality Review Solution

With the looming H1N1 crisis, it is inevitable that NYCS will have a large number of students with prolonged absences and the potential for many schools to be completely shut down. Not only will the increased absenteeism have a direct impact on test scores but it will make the Quality Review process even more challenging.
H1N1 Challenges:
How can you provide learning continuity to all students regardless of technology? How can you quickly implement a solution with quality curriculum that will have a positive impact on test scores?
Quality Review Challenges:
- How do you monitor student data when the students are not at school? - How do you monitor instruction without accurate student data?
The only solution to both challenges is to implement Learning Beyond the Classroom. New York Educational Tools and School Town have teamed up to provide a secure online learning platform designed specifically for K-12 schools and loaded with digital curriculum 100% aligned to the NY Learning Standards. Not only does it give students and parents access to the curriculum at home, it immediately confirms student learning and is a perfect solution for daily homework assignments or make-up work due to illness or school closure.
In addition to the online platform, this solution provides teachers with printable assignment packs for all Math, Science, and Reading Learning Standards (K-12). With the click of a mouse, the absentee work is both accessible by the student online or sent to a printer and prepared for student or parent pick up. This ensures equitable access for all students in NYC.
The confirmation of student learning whether in the classroom or elsewhere, combined with the daily collection of student data, will also enable you to easily complete the Quality Review process. This student data may be used for many things including the monitoring of instruction and student time on task.
This solution is currently available on FAMIS to all NYC schools and can easily be implemented in your school in a matter of days. (For more info visit http://edtools.org/core/nyc/ or call 1.800.586.9940.)

SMART Board Training Materials

At November's Tech Liaisons meeting we covered a lot of material in regards to how to make the most from your SMART Board. I'm sure many of you had your eyes opened as to the potential for this humble piece of equipment. That being said, it was a lot to take in. Luckily, SMART offers free online training videos to help you brush up and/or expand your mastery of the SMART Tools at your finger tips.
