Virtual Learning Environment (VLE)
In addition to this website (AMES), the VLE site for this course (located in the Virtual Learning Environment on the OCDSB Student Portal) will be the virtual platform for our class this year (see link and instructions below).
Your main point of contact for the course is the physical classroom. On days that you are learning outside of the classroom, useful information will be posted on this VLE site. It is where you should start your day when you are working outside of the classroom. This will also be where you will share work and join Google Meets.
When working outside of the classroom, your first step should be to check in the "Daily Communications for Online Learners" section. Information in this "Daily Communications" section will also be archived in the "Useful Instructions by Day" section over to the right for ease of reference later.
Instructions for accessing VLE site:
Follow this link to the OCDSB Student Portal:
Log in using your OCDSB Gmail (GEM) Login credentials
Click on Virtual Learning Environment (VLE)
Log-in there as directed
Under "My Courses," look for "GLC2O: Career Studies -McCabe"
(for easy access, pin it to the top of your list using the three dots in the right-hand corner of the icon).

Learning Log
Metacognition essentially means "thinking about how you think." The Learning Log is a tool that will help you do this. It also provides you with a starting point each day when you come into class.
This will be a document you work on daily as the first task in class and if working outside of class.
If you are working outside of class today, have a look at this document and save a copy [open it, file, make a copy, rename as First Name_Last Name_Learning Log] in your Google Drive (it would be a good idea to create a folder on your Google Drive called Careers where you can keep and access all of your ongoing and completed work).
A more detailed explanation of the Learning Log requirements will be provided in the physical class.
Here is a link to the Learning Log document to save your copy in your drive.
[Be sure to create a folder called Careers in your Google Drive where you can save your work]
