How/why these platforms are being implemented:
HOW:
1. Access and Usernames: Thoroughly review student-specific usernames and the procedures for logging into online platforms for both students and staff.
2. Usage Familiarity: Regularly practice logging in, accessing materials, and adding attachments. This will ensure smooth interactions with the platforms.
3. Assignment Submissions: Guarantee that students have the capability to upload or submit assignments, encompassing a range of formats such as images, videos, and documents.
WHY:
4. Document Management: Instruct students on making copies of documents to add to their personal drives. Additionally, establish and communicate naming protocols and the organization of documents within their chosen learning platforms, if applicable.
5. Video Call Etiquette: Engage in practice sessions using video call tools, such as Google Meet or Microsoft Teams, to familiarize students with appropriate online interaction and etiquette.
6. Digital Citizenship: Initiate discussions on Digital Citizenship, laying the groundwork with established norms and agreements. These should be revisited regularly to reinforce their importance.
7. Parental Communication: Notify families about the platform(s) that will be used by your school. It's important to post this information on the school's official website.
