Back to School
Online Success Workshop
Before the start of the school year, there will be a half-day meeting/camp. EVP students who will be full-time online, and their parents, will meet with their teachers, media specialists and members of the Edina Public School instructional technology team to discuss strategies for success in the online format.
Students will be invited to complete a rubric similar to the Michigan Online Learner Readiness Rubric to help us understand the strengths of each student and find areas where students may need additional support to be successful.
The content for this workshop will be housed in a module of Schoology, our learning management system. It will be accessible to parents and students regardless of when they join Edina Public Schools. Components of this content will include:
-
Understanding your teacher’s Schoology page
-
Overview of digital tools in Edina and how to access them
-
Communication between home and school in a digital environment
-
Accessing resources (such as counseling and support)
-
Introduction of digital learning platforms for online students
-
Who to contact for parents and students
