For those who do not have a smartphone or tablet to use a QR reader on their mobile device for the videos, they can click on the link directly on the whiteboard to watch the videos using their computer. For those who do not have a smartphone or tablet to use the Group Me texting feature, they can utilize the chat box within the virtual classroom to communicate and collaborate their made up nonsense words. For those who do not have a smartphone or table to use Poll Everywhere for the assessment, they can use their polling tools within Blackboard Collaborate to respond to the assessment.
10. 10. MANAGEMENT OF THE TECHNOLOGY TOOLS: These students are in first grade and cyber school from home. Each student and their learning coach (parent/guardian) are responsible for making sure the computers provided are in good working condition. If a student has access to a smartphone or tablet, the learning coach will be responsible for making sure the student is using it in the proper manner and at the proper designated times throughout the lesson. Cyber education alleviates the management responsibilities off of the teacher. Learning coaches at home become the accountable party.
