How
do I see all the names of the courses?
When you click on "My Courses" you will get a
list of all the content available. LPPS has subscribed
to 3 Libraries at this time. The libraries are:
Digital Literacy -which include all the
Microsoft Office programs such as Word, Excel, PowerPoint,
FrontPage, Access etc. This is basically application skills.
Technology Integration - which is how
teachers can use technology in the classroom to make
teaching task easier for teachers and to make learning more
relevant to learners.
NETS-
National Education Technology Standards-
which are technology skills that all teachers should
possess. These are the skills that are evaluated on the SEDL
self assessment survey that teachers take each year for the
State Department of Education. This library contains

is this Required Section?

covers Social, Ethical, Legal and Human Issues regarding
technology. This is also a prescriptive course, which means
that you will take a test that measures what you already
know and get credit for that, then you will be able to
participate in the training and take a post test to complete
it. You can stop at any time and start back where you left
off .
