Don't Blink

analyzing data graphicTeachers are often called on to develop examples and samples with filler content and it is harder than it looks. It is difficult to "create" a course and lessons which aren’t going to be used in an actual classroom. Tools abound online which make the process of actual content and course creation so much easier and “dummy content” is needed less and less. A teacher can either follow the guidelines and fill in the sections or expand the template to be as creative as he or she wants to be.

Educators are demanding more and more in terms of functions, analytics, design, communities, and live webinar tools, and these needs are creating a healthy competition for excellence. While some teachers feel overwhelmed by learning one process only to be presented with another, the advancement and expectations benefit everyone who teaches at any level. Students deserve the most challenging, up-to-date content and only by staying current with tools can schools and teachers deliver.

Not to worry – developers and course designers work hard to simplify the learning curve for all. Examples are embedded within the platform and the learning curve has been improved tremendously.
