Looking for resources over the summer?

Posted on 15:36 by Unknown

Are you going to spend some time this summer looking for some new resources to use for your lessons when school starts back?

netTrekker is a leader in the delivery of digital K-12 educational content and is dedicated to enhancing the education of today's youth with highly effective technologies that deliver rich educational content to every child in a safe, relevant, easy-to-use format. With the mission to help every child learn and a belief that technology can transform education, netTrekker was first to market with a standards-based educational search tool.

As a WSFCS teacher, do you know where to find a link to netTrekker?

I will give you a hint ... there are two words in its name .... the first one starts with L and the second word starts with V ...

Did you guess Learning Village? You are exactly right if you did!!!

If you would like to learn more about the features of netTrekker:

Use our online video tutorials to provide targeted training on netTrekker features. If you ever need that just-in-time learning, or if you are a visual learner, our set of freeonline video tutorials will help acquaint you with netTrekker features and tools.

Here are some blog posts about the many helpful things you can find in netTrekker:
  • E-books from netTrekker
  • This month from netTrekker
  • Monthly Resources for March
  • Current Events in netTrekker
  • More help using netTrekker in the classroom

When you are looking at netTrekker, you may want to look at the netTrekker blog to find some other great resources!

Look at some posts I found on the netTrekker Blog:
  • Minnesota Zoo: Education: Four Stomachs: How a Cow Turns Grass to Food
  • Philadelphia Museum of Art: Cezanne and Beyond
  • Smithsonian Education: IdeaLabs: Prehistoric Climate Change
  • Rock & Roll Hall of Fame: The Beatles
If you are a WSFCS teacher, and you need some help getting into Learning Village and/or netTrekker ... just let me know and I will be glad to help!
