Meet the LMS putting collaboration at the heart of the learning by connecting the people, content, and systems that fuel education!

-




Schoology is a learning management system for K-12 schools, higher education institutions, and corporations that allows users to create, manage, and share content and resources. Ms. Marchetti and Mrs. Schwarzkopf assisted many teachers throughout the building with integrating a learning management software into their classes while introducing new teachers to Schoology on how they could enhance their courses with an LMS. This will be an ongoing support role throughout the year. Teachers will need time to upload the needed course content into their online courses. Schoology is currently being utilized by 35 GMHS teachers.

7th grade computer students in Ms. Marchetti's class spent the day today with Rebecca Attia a GMHS graduate from 2012. Today, Rebecca works for Root Robotics which is a small start up in the educational robotic market. Rebecca brought six Roots with her and worked with the students through various tasks. Students were able to make the Roots move, sing, write, erase, bump, and interact with one another by the end of the class period!  Students had a blast working with a real computer programmer.  Thank you, Rebecca for sharing the Root with our students today!
