Alief Learns Schoology Training
The required Schoology Course Template Training is live and ready for your teachers and staff. Please visit bit.ly/AliefLearns to access the training materials. I’ve included a few quick updates regarding the course.
- A common course template is being used at all levels, K-12. This will facilitate ease of use for both educators and families.
- The slight adjustments made to the template are outlined in the training course and highlighted in the course introductory video. You can view the video using this link.
- Your teachers and staff will complete a capacity matrix as they work through the course content. This will serve as a self-assessment, and help them plan for future needs. Participants are instructed to share their completed capacity matrix with their supervisor or T-TESS appraiser via Google Drive.
As a reminder:
- This training is self-paced and does not require a facilitator.
- It should take most participants about 1.5 hours to complete the training.
- Certificates will be automatically generated & emailed to participants following course completion. You can direct your staff to submit those certificates to you as documentation.
- We are asking everyone to complete the training July 30-31, 2020. However, training will remain available on the Alief Learns Educator Training website in perpetuity.
- This training is available to all! We encourage you to complete the training alongside your teachers and staff so that you are fully aware of the expectations and are able to monitor for compliance.
