10/17/2018 E-LEARNING DAY HOW-TO GUIDE Andrea Brackman and Greta Rohe What is an E-Learning Day and why do we have them? ■ E-Learning Days are when students are engaged in virtual options for learning instead of physically attending a school day. ■ E-Learning Days were launched by the Indiana Department of Education in 2014 due to the 1:1 electronic ratio in most districts. ■ E-Learning Days may be used on a day when school is cancelled, as a planned day, or as a make up day when a day of school was missed. ■ Avon Schools met the IDOE criteria, filled out an online application, and received approval from the IDOE Office of eLearning in order to utilize eLearning Days. 2
10/17/2018 Where do I go to find my student’s assignments? ■ Schoology! – Go to the Avon Schools Homepage (https://www.avon-schools.org/) and click on the “Students” tab at the top of the page. Then click on the “Schoology” icon. How do I login to Schoology? ■ On the Sign In page, enter your student’s Student ID Number for both the Username and Password. Your student’s Student ID Number is 8 digits and teachers will be sending these home along with other application login information before the first E- Learning Day in November. ■ Once logged in, click on the “Courses” tab at the top of the page and then click on the “Homeroom” Section. 3

10/17/2018 What are the expectations for E- Learning Days? ■ Assignments will be roughly equivalent to school seat time for core subject areas. ■ Teachers will be available to answer questions from 8am-4pm through email or Schoology messages. Any message received after 4pm may not receive a response until the following school day. ■ Students have 3 school days to complete the E-Learning Day assignments. So, if your student does not have access to a computer or if they experience issues, they will be able to make up the work at school upon return. 6
