Merry Christmas!
RCampus, CourseSites, and Engrade are three course management systems that teachers can use to manage their classess online.  I have chosen to use Engrade.  Engrade is free and so easy to use.  Teachers can take attendance, post grades on Gradebook, upload files, post homework, build online quizzes and flashcards, and print progress reports.  There is also online messaging for teachers, parents, and students to stay connected that is private.  Students and parents have access to their grades 24/7.  I will be doing a unit on Plate Tectonics for 7th grade.  Videos can be uploaded to Engrade, so I am planning on trying to upload two videos. One video about Wegener, he came up with the theory of continental drift.  The second video is about plate tectonics.  Both videos are very short, about 3-4 minutes only.  I hope it works.  Wishing Everyone Peace & Joy!

  1. Hello Emily,
    I chose to use Engrade as well. I thought it was easy to navigate and found all the options it offered to be useful. :)
