Blended Bulletin, Issue 25

Blended Brags

Recently, the school counselors and college and career specialists have been working on learning and rolling out a digital tool called Naviance. Naviance is a college and career readiness portfolio platform that offers a range of tools including curriculum, planning, surveys, document collection, and many more. Our students will be using this site to produce their SSPs. The truly great part is that these SSPs will live with the students for at least their high school careers and will be a collaborative effort among the students, families, teachers, and counselors.

Cool Tools

Edulastic is a free tool for building and assigning standards-based formative assessments. The really great thing about this site is the library of assessments from the community of users.

Professional Learning
