Techniques & Models

Content Delivery

• Big Idea: Teacher’s providing organized resources and recordings of class content to be viewed or listened to at home.
• Creating content that is accessible at any time that can be paused and rewound.
• Students and parents can then access classroom content and go over it at their pace and on their schedule.
  • Example: West Hills AP World Tackks

Academic Skill Development

• Big Idea: Essential academic skills that students need to master.
  • It could be how to approach a specific type of math problem or how to write a thesis statement.
• Students can access these skills at later points in the class, at home or in class.
• Example: Writing an AP World Thesis Statement

Technical Skill Development

• Big Idea: When you are regularly using technology tools (web-based tools, computer applications, or device apps), some students may need extra AND repeatable guidance.
• Students can watch a screencast on how-to-do a specific task
• Example: Google Drawing Basics

• Teacher provides challenges through a variety of mediums (screencasts, webtools, readings, skill development, etc.).
