ALEX

ALEX is a web site set up to help Alabama teachers get information they may be trying to find. There appears to be many features available. There is a course of study link that lets you access Alabama Standards for each subject along with the proper grade level the child is learning. The Web links option takes the person accessing links to resources from other web sites. There are teacher, administrator, and student web links to obtain. You can at any time search the web site for information you may be seeking.

The lesson plan icon is a very useful choice. A teacher can use it to find specific lesson plans based on subject, grade level, or a key word. Personal workspace seems to be something set up for members to access a area that is private and that they can use as a teacher work area on-line. The Professional Studies is set up in a way that a teacher can find development studies, learning and teaching tools, and the latest with education. The distance learning tab is really cool because it helps schools with limited classes use online classes to implement new areas of learning. Seems like a very interesting and helpful tool for teachers.
