Importing The first thing that has to happen for you to be able to use OnTRACK is you need to be given the ability to COPY each course into your district corner. It is highly preferred that this is done by a Project Share site administrator.
Districts are allowed to use OnTRACK as supplemental instructional resources. Ideas for use: • Direct Teach Examples (Projected) • Additional Practice Assignments • Acceleration and Intervention • Grade Recovery Work • Blended with Classroom Instruction • Flipped Classroom
