Online resource Absolutely FREE! Available anywhere with internet access Technology increases engagement Videos can be paused and re- viewed

Limitations Focus is on mathematics  Extensive knowledge map Extensive knowledge map “Limited” science material…but it’s growing  Biology  Chemistry  Physics  Healthcare Limited in other content areas  Humanities, finance, and test prep

Benefits For the Student Self-paced Automatic differentiation Goal setting for lessons (ownership of learning) Enrichment opportunities

Goal Setting

Benefits For the Teacher Immediate student data

Granular Student Data

Instant Class Data

Class Progress at Your Fingertips

Other Benefits for the Teacher Increased student engagement means more time for one on one Pre-testing for math is taken care of Multiple uses – limited only by your imagination…

Many Uses of Khan Academy Remediation: Virtual tutor, summer academy Enrichment: Access curriculum not available in district/school Online homework for snow days Prepare for substitute Teaching assistant/stations Get students caught up from being absent Warm ups (brain teasers, etc.)

…and to help guide: students and parents… You need to communicate!

A Class Website (easy communication) There are many free ways to create a class website Find one that suites your style Find one that is easy to use Find one that allows flexibility I chose weebly.com QuestScienceGuy.weebly.com
