  3. Topics to Consider • On-line samples only • Ancillaries are back • What type of on line product will work for us? • Compatibility with your technology • Student review • Curriculum review • 100% TEKS coverage • No AP (AP Biology, Chemistry, Physics)

  4. Timeline • Planning Summer 2013 • Review 2013 – 2014 • Implement 2014 - 2015

  5. Dealing with On-Line Samples How to review? Individually As a campus Grade level district wide Who reviews? Staff Parents/Community Students • Evaluation Form Design Curriculum Usability Compatibility

  6. Review Criteria - Curriculum • Reviewers must thoroughly understand new TEKS and STAAR/EOC issues. • Supports instructional model? • Use as resource or focus of the curriculum? • Does the material complement IM already in use in the district? • Check appeal/engaging lessons. • Depth of curriculum • Diversity of resources

  7. Review Criteria - Students • Watch selected students complete an assignment • Was the material easy to access and use? • Was the assignment/lesson engaging? • Were there opportunities for practice? • Were the needs of B/ESL students addressed? • Were different learning styles and levels addressed?

  8. Review Criteria - Technology • Is the material fully compatible with all devices used in your district? • Is the management system easy to use? • Single platform for all grade levels/subjects? • Is your student information system used to determine what resources can be accessed? • Who loads the student data? • District server or vendor server? • What video rights do we get with implementation? • What printing rights do we get with implementation? • On-line test results used by system to suggest additional assignments? • What additional resources does the district need to partially implement? • What additional resources does the district need to fully implement?

  9. Your Opinion • What features do you think are important in on-line instructional material? • What do you dislike about on-line resources you have used? • Have you used any of the on-line resources currently available? Which ones _______ • Would you be happy with only on-line teacher resources? • Would you be happy with only on-line student resources?
