Distance learning requires a different approach to education. With the right resources, you can still connect with and support your students outside of the classroom.
We are committed to supporting educators with distance learning and helping every step of the way, from lesson creation to assessment delivery. We are always adding new features, articles, and lessons to help the learning and teaching continue from home.
If you’re brand new to Edulastic, check out how to use Edulastic for distance learning or tune into a live training. You’ll learn how to add your student roster, create and give learning tasks, and analyze the immediate data. Then, dive into the below resources to learn how to use Edulastic for remote instruction.
One of the wonderful things about Edulastic is that it’s great for both in the classroom and remote. That means that no matter what the year throws your way, you’ll be prepared for anything. Also, it means that without much additional work, you’ll have plenty of flexibility to support students in person and online if your school is adopting a hybrid in-person/remote model for instruction.
Distance Learning Assessment AND Lessons
For the optimal online instruction experience, it’s important to have the capacity to deliver all types of learning tasks. While Edulastic is traditionally optimal for assessment creation and delivery, the latest features make it just as great for lesson delivery.
Educators can deliver online lessons through Edulastic that are engaging and include student checks throughout the lessons. When crafting a lesson or assignment, you can insert instructions, video, audio, images, passages, and other content to guide students. Using the question items, you can give students prompts to respond to along the way.
If you have a Premium Teacher account you can mark the assignment as practice to later categorize it separate from graded assessments when looking at your reports. You can also craft and deliver distance learning curricula in units via our new feature, Playlists. Playlists give a place to deliver learning tasks, assessments, and attach learning resources for students. They contain their own insight reporting features so you can keep tabs on how students are progressing through the content.
