EdTech Help is about support for learning & instruction. It puts you in touch with the Instructional Technology Coordinator. Get Edtech support by emailing: edtech@fsdnet.ca
Our IT Help desk handles support issues on all manner of network, software, and hardware concerns.
Here's what will be happening:
Seesaw: archiving of classes on Monday, June 28th. This will take these classes out of view for students, as well as close down student logins.
Classroom: teachers will need to 'archive' their Classrooms to take them out of view of students by June 28th. See a 'how-to' guide at left.
Coaches and IT Help desk staff will be involved with delivery of new iPad devices to FSD schools. Coaches will work with teachers to establish routines and instructional strategies. The primary focus for iPad implementation will be to support our Seesaw platform during in-class and remote learning. Here's our iPad page... more support coming!
