HomeSqool
allows for easy virtual
classroom creation using existing content.
There
is
no need to reformat your existing content. For example, let's
say
that an instructor has created a unit on vertebrates. The unit
consists of a PowerPoint presentation that introduces
the different groups of vertebrates, a list of website
addresses
that provide information about each of the vertebrate groups, and a
rubric, used to evaluate a cooperative project, that is a word
processing document. The PowerPoint and rubric can be
uploaded to the virtual classroom. The website
addresses
can be quickly added to your classroom as hyperlinks. The
students
will be able to view the PowerPoint and rubric by click on the links
within the classroom. They will be able to visit the website
and
still be contained within the navigation system of your classroom.
HomeSqool supports
a wide range of different resource types
that allows you to include virtually any kind of digital
content into
your courses. Any electronic file, PowerPoint, word processing
document, flash file, spreadsheet, etc. can be integrated in
your
virtual classroom by using the "add a resource" drop down menu.
