1st Week of School - What you need to know!!
Schoology allows for various methods of instruction, which student will experience during the first week of school. You may hear the terms synchronous and asynchronous learning, but what does that mean to students? Synchronous learning is when the teacher is teaching LIVE and in color on the screen and students are tuning in to learn directly. Asynchronous learning is when the student is working independently on their assigned work; they could be watching a Screencast or they may also be emailing their teacher for guidance or additional resources.
The first week of school will be a combination of both synchronous and asynchronous learning. Students will follow this schedule during the first week of school.
