Follow the Curriculum Building Road! Curating Quality Digital Texts, Videos, and Other Digital Content for Students

Webinar date: Wednesday, July 1 2020, 12:00 PM

There’s no place like home. Complete your journey on the Curriculum Building Road using ISearch. Your home for digital content, ISearch combines the power of your school library and INFOhio’s digital resources.

Where can you find quality digital text? Use ISearch to find the right text for the standard and topic you are teaching. ISearch’s simple, single, search box will help you find text at all levels to develop content area knowledge and build comprehension. Find a variety of encyclopedia, magazine, and newspaper articles that include read aloud options too.

How can you use it for instruction? Join INFOhio to learn how to save, share, and engage students with digital content that supports your curriculum using ISearch.

This webinar will be presented by Mary Rowland, INFOhio Instructional Team Specialist and former high school English teacher.

Blended, Hybrid, Flipped…Oh my! We’re certainly not in Kansas anymore! The 2019-2020 school year was a challenge. The pivot to remote teaching and learning was difficult because many of us were working in emergency mode—grabbing curriculum content wherever we could find it, trying different apps and platforms to deliver that content to students, and trying our best to keep calm and carry on while surrounded by uncertainty. As an unprecedented 2020-21 school year approaches, schools will need to further integrate technology into their instruction to connect and engage learners.

What can you do to make sure you aren't operating in emergency mode again? Start by evaluating what worked well and where to improve as you plan to succeed in what lies ahead. As Glinda the Good Witch said, "You are capable of more than you know." Whether next school year is face-to-face, blended, or remote, INFOhio can help you make a map to build digital curriculum to use next school year and beyond. This summer, we’re off to see INFOhio’s curriculum resources. Join us Wednesdays at noon for 30 minutes as we follow the Curriculum Building Road.
