The Platform Formerly Known as Plato

Описание: Presenters: Elizabeth Bennett, Literacy MN, & Panel (Katey Miller, Literacy MN; Andrew Kappel, Edmentum; Brittany Kandoi, SW Metro ABE
It’s true: Edmentum is no longer called Plato, but it’s still a state-supported (FREE to use) distance learning platform. And, it keeps getting better! With hundreds of ready-to-use courses and options to create custom courses, flex assignments, and individualized learning pathways, Edmentum almost certainly has something for you. This session will feature a panel of Minnesota adult educators who use Edmentum in different contexts and for different purposes, and will be facilitated by Andrew Kappel, our Edmentum Customer Success Manager. You’ll learn about the large catalog of pre-HSE, GED, HiSET, and career pathway content; ways to differentiate and customize content; built-in support for diverse learners (including English learners); and where to learn more. It will be helpful to know your Edmentum login credentials before joining this session; you can reset your password here or request a new account here. (Note: No doves–or teachers–will cry in this session; there is, however, a slight chance of purple rain.)

Objectives:
-Distinguish between Edmentum Courseware, custom courses, Flex -Assignments, Exact Path, and Apex courses
-Know how to access various features and how to get support
-Learn how Edmentum can support learners in a variety of ABE contexts
