What is eLearning?
eLearning is learning conducted via electronic media over the Internet. eLearning provides students with access to educational resources and curricula outside of the traditional classroom setting.
How will my student receive instruction?
All teachers will use Google Classroom as their learning management system. Google Classroom will be used to connect with students, post assignments and announcements, share links to learning activities, and more.
Teachers will blend both on-screen and off-screen activities, based on the age and needs of your student. They will also use Google Meet for live instruction. If your student is unable to attend a live instruction meeting, it will be recorded and posted on the teacher’s Google Classroom for viewing later.
