Tue, 03/02/2010 - 11:02 — mick.torres
In the fall of 2010, District 128 will launch a new student data
management system called, PowerSchool. On Feb. 26, District 128 staff
participated in the first of many training opportunities to learn about
Power School. Through the
help of staff who volunteered to be “Power Peers,” and a new technology
called
Adobe ConnectNow, staff members in locations at both high schools
simultaneously participated in a training program lead by the District
technology trainer. Through PowerSchool, parents and students will
have access to student performance information.
District 128 will embark on new ways to communicate and provide
feedback to students and parents through this new software. Teachers
will have new tools to incorporate all stakeholders in the learning
process. Teachers will eventually be able to analyze, adjust
and enhance daily classroom instruction based on the student
performance data collected. Read more »
