2. With many seeing blended/hybrid learning environments as the next evolution in secondary education, those schools who fail to understand the importance may see themselves soon becoming thought of as obsolete. “Instructors’ abilities to teach online are critical to the quality of online education” (University of Washington, 2013.). It is for this reason that VCMS Middle School is beginning a training initiative addressing the use of LMS, specifically, Schoology. The following reflects the introductory course design.

3. Learning outcomes Teachers who are integrating the Learning Management System into their classes should be able to log into, and navigate the LMS Schoology, given a computer lab, face to face instruction, and additional online support; each teacher should have set up an account and completed the online navigation tour by the end of the first session. Teachers who are integrating the Learning Management System into their classes should be able to assess and identify the best unit to initially place on the LMS Schoology given a computer lab, face to face instruction, and peer support and discussions with one lesson from that unit being selected for the LMS prior to the end of the first session. Teachers who are integrating the Learning Management System into their classes should be able to design, manage, and operate an entire unit in the LMS Schoology given a computer lab, face to face instruction, and additional online support; at least one lesson will be completed and uploaded by the end of the first phase of training.

4. Course Format This is a blended/learning course. The activities in each of the units are presented in an online setting using the school district internal server. In addition, students will meet at the start of each unit in the classroom.
