Taking Blended Learning 2 the Next Level

Setting up our classes has never been easier with all of the advances in learning management systems and Google! Why not take a chance?  Step into the world of Blended Learning with me and let’s find a way to save both you and your students time!

Why not ALL on Classroom or Moodle?
  • G Classroom needs four sep sections not ONE with four groups
  • Cannot lock announcement at the top
  • Designed for teacher in traditional classroom in chrono order… NOT topical or subject…
  • G Class is document management
  • No test grading in G Class or adaptive release (Flubaroo does a nice job grading T/F or Multiple choice!)
  • Cannot save a test in G Class / forum in the middle or if wifi goes down!  Must be completed straight through.
  • Careful with Finals!

So I took the BEST from BOTH and combined them!

In a world of test scores, content standards & benchmarks, and evaluation fears, sometimes the main purpose can be pushed aside, even forgotten.  That is the kids.  Plain and simple they are the heart of what we do.  Let me be the reminder...
