so here we go and I'll share my screen you see how that works and I'm what you should be looking at is basically my dashboard on Schoology anybody want to verify that that you were seeing it as well or not yet thank you okay so I know this is a typical dashboard and I wanted to remind you that basically for the purposes of you know what's happening there are two main types of horses that we deal with one are the shell Splash provision courses and I say that because you've heard those name at different times for the same thing and so shall / provisioned courses the names have logical meaning provisioned means somebody else provides them for you and so that's somebody else in this case is Schoology in conjunction with stasis so forces created in daysis by new cases coordinators and threw some automatic process schoology gets that information and then. Bruce will be created in schoology and so their provision by schoology the other thing that we were several ideas were also calling them where she'll courses because get those courses at the Shell there are no materials in them and the only thing they do have the in them are student and school as you get so students from daysis when they're enrolled so that's the one major type so they're their courses with students but no materials and they have a typically they have a year of a was it called the grading. Is for one year so the the end of this particular current here for those courses would be like in the end of June and then those courses would disappear from so have a question mr. bear last semester there was some students from other class that was and rolling welding didn't belong there and I talked Patrick and Schaefer and it said hello just like removing angle how okay my closet and they don't belong there but they they still there even if I go on on dazes and try to like a watercolor complete them where we got them and they're still there everything so okay so part of that is because but yeah I know you weren't paying attention no I just let him in all caps that I did that that's good to know okay so I know when mr. Martinez in sin for others were listening to that conversation so yeah so that's something that the it Tas of the sort of discovered this year that even though dayss removes them schoology doesn't but I will if you remind me mr. Martinez I will show you how to handle that by using rating groups okay so you can't get them off of your list of members but you can sort of boot them out of the way so you don't really see them everyday okay when you're especially when you're talking about the grade books to Shell provision course now the other main type of course are the custom courses and typically there are two types of custom courses one is a corset somebody else makes for you and makes you an admin so for those of you who you know a lot of ESL teachers a lot of academic teachers have custom courses created by me because of the division has created many many course templates ESL academic and then I I get a copy of those and then I make a copy for the teachers that need those but the other type of custom course is a custom course created by you completely without any input from me okay so anybody you can it says create a course you can make your own course and not involved in the creation of or management of of that course at all it's Alyssa custom courses in so typically the ones that I create for you have a much longer grading. they go on until like 20-25 so they will be around for a long time so what happens when you're trying to move materials from course to course is a little bit different for those two main groups in the custom courses the other big difference is that management of members depends completely on the the admin the teacher there's no automatic syncing with the Asus okay and and then you're also of course the creator of the materials as well but you have much more control and then ITT a meeting today actually all the it Tas were discussing some of these things we call did come to the general conclusion for most people moving forward because of certain things that you know everybody at all the different schools have experimented with or found out or have been revealed for some of the things that we may already have talked about we're going to try to encourage everybody to try to make use of a custom course whether or not we created for you or you created for yourself because especially as moving to grade books what we've experienced is that why you can a customized I'm sorry while you can easily move materials from one course another course that you're using next semester the grades don't transfer in the provision courses so if you're somebody who's been using the grade books and you got a lot of grades for your students in like the feeling of the fall semester and then that student or several of those students are going to remain with you in the next semester okay if you if you continue to use the provision course the ones made by Davis you can easily move the materials from the fall semester to the spring but all of those grades will not transfer automatically you have to go back into the or you would have to go into the new course the spring course and manually enter the Great whereas if you're using a custom course okay the Grays will stay because that course sticks around until 2025 and so that's a pretty power argument for people who are heavily using grade books that they may want to consider transferring or starting to make more use of the custom courses I believe went when you say custom courses that were sent by you and they've got the content and everything those are also called as. Coleman puts Des created horses that real that's if that's another way to talk about him just want to make sure I haven't really heard that term so I'm certainly different teacher visors may have certain that certainly makes sense to that for me so there might be some confusion there like does desus and schoology together but you're right so but basically it's a custom course where you're in control of the materials and the Austin  anyway I was just going to show you on the the idea here let me get mine so right here for example one of the easiest ways to know if it's a shell or provision course is all of those shell and provision course is pretty much have these long strings of numbers okay and if you never really taken a look at that you know there's the year 9329 is our school code okay 6308 is a section number and then the last string of numbers are your course numbers so that's what that means okay all these other ones that you see clear that so all these other ones American literature you know my sandbox biology these are all not those those are her I think things like those maybe mr. Ramirez is courses and I don't know what he could have done I noticed there's a. In front could mean that he made that course is a custom course and gave it his own name I'm not sure mr. Ramirez is that you yeah that's me what I did was to restart the order when I go to my courses for the text listing putting the putting a little a digit there up a character moves that I have to alphabetical okay so you just rename that yeah but it's still it's still a shell course it's not a pain so for example this is the economics course that I received from the central office I make a copy called North Valley Occupational Center okay and then for all of the teachers that need that particular course it was called copy a section okay and so that's what I do to make all of these custom courses for the teachers and Nokia cells the same thing you guys think you have enough courses on your dashboard cuz I have more Enrique so for example there's ESL one so this is the main of course I originally created and then a lot of you could probably see your names you know because I've made copies for you okay so these are the custom courses now how does that affect what's going to happen at the end of the semester okay so again we said there's two main types of courses the the shell provision courses in the custom courses so let's say for example will take Miss Diaz is course ESL one that's it may not be a great idea because she doesn't have any students right set Ministry so let me go back it will pick a teacher who has students maybe is there one of you who would like to volunteer teaching ESL one who a d King okay and are you using are you using this is your course so that's Grace of thank you volunteering so here's Miss Kings course and if I look under members so you can see that I'm an admin Miss King is an admin and then here are all of her students okay so what Miss King all that Miss King has to do for next semester is one work with the members or two going to the materials so let's take a look at the members so for example Miss King what do you know about josefina's you think that she'll be with you in the same horse or she moving on Athena is actually in my level three class so that one's a mistake and I've never been able to get rid of her whatever don't matter so let's move on Zelda the next one who is going to move on okay so we no longer need her in this particular Corso typically in and what you say that you haven't been able to get rid of her I'm a little bit concerned because it should really work same way I'm not going to do it yet cuz she still got a week but josefina's definitely not in your Club course right she's in my level 3 and when I say I haven't been able to get rid of I just don't know how so you have the gear here on the okay and basically is unenroll you don't have that many that's and noticed the other menu items here send message preview course make admin and unenroll so josefina's definitely in the core so it's okay we will just go ahead and on and on enroll her and do confirm it again this is a custom course you have control it's the little bit different with the shell provision course so we no longer see her however notice that you know maybe you haven't noticed but the default is all but there are a few other titles here C do you have Uber's admins and then you have inactive so if I click on an act if she still there she hasn't completely gone away forever she's in the inactive okay but you don't see her on your lip so what you would want to do is all of your students who you think are going to be promoted the next semester through using the custom courses you just unenrolled them and then they go into this inactive folder okay now if we're really really sure I see a question yes this is Cindy I have I wonder if you could address for we had this come up this week and it may come up in the future if teachers are sick and need us to take over there schoology and zoom in school and she could you show the teachers how to add a sub as an app that's what needs to be done if you if you should need us up okay we are we can do it let me finish with this general idea so notice that you now so again we're in the inactive and now you have a you have two choices now at the gear so 1 is re-enroll so what would happen here is let's say the teacher goes off to the other course of the student go to the other car and then says all you know what I really don't think it's appropriate and they talk with her teacher advisor and you know they say okay let's have your return so you can just go right back and re-enroll them are you sure gone from inactive let's go back to the all and then she's back on the list so again unenroll are you sure until you would have to do this one by one for every student that will no longer be participating in this custom course for next semester okay so I go again to check you can go to inactive all right and there she is and the other one is remove I can I haven't actually done this but I can only imagine that really means astalavista let's get it get River in so again this king before I do this you really don't need her in this course okay so I will say remove and are you sure and now it looks like she's gone for good saltus way to remove let's say your teacher knows all the members they're all that not where I should look at it the other way none of the students will be in the same class everybody's moving onto in math I think you have to go through ins and select each one okay so answer again at your like you may want to First just make them either you unenroll them they flip over to the inactive okay and just leave him there for a while to make sure they're not coming back and then at some point you know a few months down the road you could remove them completely any questions Mister B Team once you unenroll them they stop seeing the course on there under dashboard yes thank you okay and then that was great by day yes that's the floor nearby you based on the provisional chords by J's not that the horses that we got cows not those right custom course that I created for or that you created for yourself what is a do not sync with day sis courses now the other thing that you would want to do before the next semester or sometime you at the end of the week or you know is you want to go into your materials and updates at least your materials and then I'll see you may have some that are that you published of the students can see and you may have some that are on top list right and so you may want to do no unpop maybe unpublished week 17 you may want to unpublish that now miss Kingdom may be using that this week 2 still active right so not now but you know you can come on over here and then unpublishing so you could have clean up materials as well and then perhaps a let's say are there any Miss King are there any like these were maybe you've been active with a discussion or something or you at are you asking me if there are any things that I should be unpublishing right now or maybe like you've got some student discussions from last semester lots of them and that's a big question is how do we can I get rid of all that cuz he want to start with a clean slate in these things without that's what I was going to try to see if for example under week 17 or 16 do you have any student discussions yes both of them will have student discussions on on the Tuesday okay I'm the Tuesday so let's go down to the Tuesday see and so then that was the discussion did anybody actually do anything with chick okay so you do have a few so right and so you could not do that type of cleaning up just to leave them one by one but I think it may be more efficient it on this side I would actually have to check if you save your man cereals so let's say that it was describing the home well actually let's if we can do the whole thing if you save it to resources when you pull it back out of the resources it should delete all of the student stuff that may be a more efficient way so let's actually try that I'm going to soak for week this is week 16 describing a home I click on save to resources and then right now at you could do a folder you know for all the different different things for example we could call it well test folder list Emmett s folder okay and these are all the things right in that folder so we'll save a copy this may be more efficient thank you when I go up to my resources okay was in the test folder so that's at week 6 describing a home so that if I open it now and we'll go to Tuesday it will go to the discussion board see everything has been eliminated so now what I would do is perhaps added back to the course so I can you can decide for yourself which system may be more efficient for you Lexi let's just try this I'm going to add it to the course this this may be a what you doing it for my phone that it takes so long well those jerks while we're waiting very I just want to say that these these course these days created courses are being kind of shined up and tweaked a little bit and then new copies are going to be sent out so I don't know do you even know about that or how that would figure into what you're talking about but I just want to add that and so is King who is a expert schoology course developer now is part of the ESL team creating courses and yes in our meeting today I tta's were informed that ESL courses are being cleaned up. all of the feedback during the semester differentiated as well for example level 3 which is the one I work on we're going back in and saying okay here's what you can do in 3A and here repeat for trimester people so Banana case to get back to your other this has not been released yet that's inside information from somebody on the development team that information will at some point be released by The ESL program advisor and adapt what I was hoping to do is I will create new copies of all of those for all of the ESL teachers just like I did in the past and then you know you would probably want to start using those instead of what you're currently doing but yes but anyway so what I see now these are all of the courses you when when you click on add to course you see all of the courses that you have access to you would see fewer cuz you have fewer than I do if you don't have too many I don't know if you know this but he sees we have this thing called ctrl-f like this find in Max probably have something similar but free but I'm going to get on my keyboard Ctrl F and I get a little search bar which you may not see because it's being hidden so you see this little search bar up here so I'm going to type in King and it narrows it down to all the course names that have the name King in it say something that could help you if you have a lot of things to scroll through that's cool call F on a PC I don't know what happens on a Mac so there is that ESL one miss king and you can see there's actually two instances she has two courses so I can use these two arrows so one is ESL and then the other one is her ESL three-course so I'm going to go back up to ESL one I click on this box okay and then I say add it may take a few moments so you're right for ESL courses you may not even bother doing this because it looks like you'll be gay they'll be creating brand new master courses and so you can just stop using the existing one and create a new one okay so let's see what that says let me go back it says I got a little message your please ensure that you smoke the category and try again interesting Siri I have a question for you so you know a previously I had the mass of an older version and then you I asked you for the newer and you gave it to me now I've been using the older version just because I had you no have started with it and have some stuff already so does that mean that now in the next semester of course it will stay continue to be the same one but let's say in next for example next you know the fall semester with that the wind Asus then just automatically enroll people in the newer version no because member automatically enroll means she'll or provision Course and there are no materials in the so what you can do you if you're going to start using the new custom course then what you have to do is open the custom course open up your shell course I usually do it like side Bayside I looked down the list of names of all the students in the provisioner Shell course cuz they were in your course from dace's and then you have to add each one of those students into your custom course Okay so let's see what happened to it looks like it did not transfer over so let me go back up to resources and see if we can figure out I didn't transfer so even though this may not be pertinent for ESL teachers this particular semester it still may be a good idea for other other teachers okay so there it is describing the home let's add to a course but this is see this is the way that for example if you are using the Shell courses that you want to get your materials into your resources so that they're there so then you can copy them back into the new shell course if you decide to use it next semester so let's do the control as thing again and so there we go try it again let's see maybe it's just command F on a map thank you what was try it again and see what happens so that time it worked it says the template was added and I'm not sure why I didn't work the first time so now we go back I'm going to go back to miss King of course and if you scroll all the way down to the bottom there it is you see it the describing a home so will I open it up again and the discussions were on a Tuesday let me move this stuff out of the way and there's a discussion board and for work 12C now there's no there's no stopping comments okay so it erases all of the student comments so you know you can decide you want to do that you know like at the beginning of the semester or if you have all of your weeks unpublished you know before you publish something you may just want to go in and say you know what just going to delete the few comments that I feel because you eat there may be some discussions are some things where there aren't a lot of it no you didn't have a lot of activity Okay so that's again saving things to the resources and bringing them out is a nice technique now for the for the shell and provision courses to remember what's going to happen with those the course is stick stick around they're not going to disappear okay but you're going to get new shell provision courses with the new section numbers and what will be in then we'll be the do students so then you have to do the thing of transferring the assignments individually into the new shell courses so again I can't EA's pretty much you know like to encourage teachers to start using the custom courses cuz we think that for most people it's a lot easier to maintain the course in the materials if you're especially if you using grade books and you have lots of different especially the academic courses or courses that have multi-levels and you have a lot of students that will continue you know instead of having to recreate grade books and recreate all of those materials it may be easier to just go ahead and start with the custom the custom course has any questions about that so far okay let me go back since we're wearing Ms King's course let's just pretend that Miss King is going to have a sudden Wellness for Monday and she's informed Administration that she needs to substitute okay and then the substitutes the administration is okay we we have a substitute for you and I know this is the name of the substitute can you please add her as an admin so as teachers you you're an admin you can do it you go to numbers okay and again you go back to add members okay and it's basically you just type in the new it's my understanding that you know we still use pretty much the same set group of substitutes I think they've all been associated in Des with North Valley Occupational Center button k there's like a brand-new substitute who hasn't been associated with with us remember you there's an arrow here the drop-down arrow and we just move the stuff out of the way and then you see all of the other schools and there's also one called division of adult and Career Education so some people are in here this division of adult and Career Education okay so you may not necessarily find them you know in if you don't find them under the default North Valley then they you make sometimes you might have to find them here division of adult and Career Education before example busiest common substitute that were using well I was thinking Mendes Justin just type in the name let me see what happens you hit typed in the name and hit enter to search and then she pops up okay so it's a two-step process it's it's not dissimilar from how you add students you selector first okay and then just add members but there's a second step because you want to make her an admin so you scroll you have to find her in the list there she is in the list and again you go to the Gear the gear usually is some sort of a way to do something so you go to the gear and there's a make admin just click on that in that class you to confirm and then she bounces up to the top of the list as an admin so now is a substitute chicken I'm into this course and have access not only to the materials but also to what the students have submitted see and that's that's a big thing because as a substitute they may want you may want them several days to be able to grade things and look at assignments your rear-view returned to the course she doesn't necessarily need to be in your corset the process is very basically very simple you know remove the admin okay now she's back as a student she doesn't need to be student and that's you can own in roller okay so where is she she still in active right so you can keep you know the next time you use as a substitute she's right there you can put her back or you can remove her completely should I should I repeat that anybody would like to that again addmembers type the name there she is different person different person and then but then you have to look for them in the list make admin are you sure and then they bounce up to the top I think this is a good way if you want one of the advisors to help you out or or take a look at something there or add something a tool or material that they of bum mention to you you can do the same thing that's right and you can you can do this with your buddies if you have a and I know several teachers have you know your members in each other's course so they can help each other out it's not it's not a bad idea at all okay yes Miss King go ahead my question is we've now received the copy a digital copy of the slows and I do not have a clue how to get it into my course and where to put it do you have a recommend I'm mesmerised by my cat I was totally distracted you okay and the cat is going to be in the nvoc site for posterity now because we're recording this is making an admin that sounds to me like something the different plc's maybe could get together perhaps formalize how to make it uniform across all of the courses you would add a photo this is treason right I mean wouldn't it would rip down the page and it would eventually go away so you can put it in materials in updates in an update you know things as you you know I post more they do move down the page unless you make it a one of these little bell announcements and it stays up at the top I was going to say in it make it an announcement many teachers though they're using this announcement to put their resume link is always listless okay so here's my zoom link just to show you what happens here are the sloes okay so what you do is you click the Bell or the box next to the Bell which signifies an announcement and then when you post it it stays at the top but the nice thing is this is when you go to materials they also stay at the top very this is Cory them how to how to put a copy and paste a picture into the announcement yes because at one time a picture would not even be accepted now it is accepted add on to that President as an announcement yes it should take I've I've done it recently but as an added, to the students who have phones don't see those pictures Saint announcements but that's an option you know you just add a new phone can you call it flows you know the students what are the student learning outcomes outcomes and then you know it is if you're saying this a picture for everybody or it's something you typed it's a PDF I believe you could still do that you know you create the folder I mean that's one way you could do it as a folder you know it could go under here under the course introduction you already have a folder I'm screwing up music Kings course royalty course introduction so you can just add him it's at a page ad materials at a page Union money and we'll call it student learning outcomes I don't do you have that nobody sent me that particular PDF but let's see if we can insert content in image see what sort of interesting images I have go to the bitmojis I like this one Barry I'm going to I sent it to you it's okay this is fine but thank you where's the student but actually saw this is Patricia x-class so at some point you'll go back in and out of this and then you don't maybe want to move it up to the top defy dragging it up to the top student learning outcomes you click on it and you see it Siri if you put a like like you mentioned about having not only the link but perhaps the SLO xindian what's meant in other words that announcement saying is just one block right there it's just that so you can only just feel that it's been updated you you only have one announce the top it would be nice if you could do more than one but I don't know if that's been updated ever but what's nice about them see announcements remain on the materials page also so so so they're always there the announcements created with the Bell image right okay thank you is there a way to make that larger those announcements I can barely see them they're small remember you're reviewing it you can you can change the size of it that's great but also remember your viewing it as part of a zoom presentation so when you if you if you were to go directly to your own course it would look different right but you're right this is there's the right here you have the font size to 14 but I've often been able to tweak it by making my announcement in a Word document changing the size Define as big as I want and sometimes it takes sometimes it doesn't but anyway it's it's worth the try to make it to the ER okay so that's so if we covered most of the things that I think are important for getting ready for next semester and we also cover how to turn people Two and a Half Men have them and turn them into an admin in this announcement let me sort of address with mr. Martinez was talking about when you have like a lot of students and perhaps will do that instead of in uses King's Room go to my sandbox so we'll see what's in the sandbox I think in this one okay so I may have covered this at one of our trainings there are a lot of you guys already in the sandbox so that you're all members or there are a lot of people who are members but one thing you you may never have seen before is that under the name there's like a little designation and that is what's called a grading group organized members integrating groups so in this particular case I think I was imagining that I was doing a level or in a level five course so I created a grading group for level 4 and level 5 by clicking over here and saying add grading group okay so let's who's here's the list I stuck in level four OK Suzette I stuck in level 4 let's see if there's anybody others Miss King okay so she's not integrating group yet so how do I get her into a grading group okay so now I'm going to let say she's going to be in the level 5 I want to edit it and this is similar the add members form but it's got all the people in in the course okay so I just look around there's Miss King okay so I'm going to now I'm going to check her off notice go be a mystery raffle Hoy you know people were already in this okay and so then I just click on create the grading group again and now when we look for Miss Kingston how she's in the level five so what I was going to suggest if you don't make the students in active okay you could create grading group for the students who aren't really participating often so they don't clutter up your screen until you know they finally disappear because we're this also affects if you're using the gray when you go to the gradebook some of the things that happened so you see all the list of student names in the Gradebook right if you click on the Sorting so you can sort them and you can always you can say okay I only want to see what the level for students are doing and so you get all the level fours in one group okay or you can say I want to see what all the level 5 students are doing and then you get all of the scores only for the level for the level fives the other thing here let me see if I can scroll down here so in this section what I'm demonstrating is when you create your assignments you can say this is an assignment only for level five we're only for level 4 so in the Gradebook this one that's called chapter 11 summary notice is greyed out here because it's not assigned to these students it's only assigned to those students could you please repeat how you call you set that up from the beginning when we go to create assignment is that the point at which we indicate the oh yes that's right when you create the assignment for the gray or the assignment so yeah let's take a look let's just pick one so this was just some random assignment I created Okay so try going to the edit let's see if it's an edit well I don't see it here so it may actually be in the folder with the material Barry this is Corey can you keep that page open for a minute sure I had a question gate to hold on let me see let me find that one assignment there was Kami PDF experiment maybe it's here okay well we're back there go ahead but you have to go back you have to save changes and I have to see I just see that where do you have it's it's individually a sign let me see how I made should I think it should open up a you should ask me who do is sign it to their ego sorry I signed to and then when you when it says sign to assess begin typing the name of a car remember or grading group see so we said what level level four okay see that or level five we also had the opportunity to assign adjust for one student if I have an assignment that I only want Carol govier to do I can select your name c in the sea Patricia King so at this point this assignment will only be for Carol and Patricia Barry would you recommend using the words like level four or grading group a is the story your decision but anyway let's do this so we're going to make it a level 4 assignment okay and we'll save the changes in this one assignment and right I remember this is the Kami PDF experiment so now when I go to the gradebook so Kami PDF I guess this was what you see how some of them are grayed out and summer see this one is accessible and this one is not so let's see who was in for she's so for all these people in level four you could put a grade there right so let's see Melissa's in level four so if I go back to all members formal S I can put a grade 65 cuz she tried really hard but Mister apple he is not in level 4 so I can't even put a grade questions I have a question when you're finished you go back to that when I say in you go back to that where you made the changes if you just click on that this is Corey well that's not okay so in okay this is the editing did you save changes with with the level for matter this isn't actually did this isn't where it where I want to see it in Schoology I'm sorry I want to see it on your list of materials oh I'm sorry this is fine you see where it says posted Wednesday October 28th 2020 yeah okay so can students see that because I'm reusing courses and I may be I posted it you know like last semester but I'm I'm reusing a course so I believe that you could still see old dates like that so do you know how to get rid of that no but I can but you're sure they see it I don't know I guess I should ask her if I can do this words that appear would it be where you do the course options and then view as a student I think that's what he's so I don't know I've never tried that cuz I never tried that so I happen to have a student account I don't know if you noticed but I'm enrolled in courses and I have a s s o as a student okay and so let's see first of all look so this is me as a student okay and I think that I'm a member of my PD love spell check okay right Black Diamond ear twice okay so let's see which one is that okay sis guy here right okay sometimes I confuse myself okay so it's this one here all right and we said that was the Kami PDF experiment right now let's go back to my knees student and look for Cami PDF I don't think it was number three was it no Kami PDF when am I see it so this is the right course be able just to click on another Kami PDF another one you won't see it as a student in the baker list just kids it 3-1 and see if you have a date that shows yes you do you see posted Thursday October 29th so I'm wondering if I take if I go through the steps of putting it into resources and then putting it back into the class it won't have it'll have a new post date most likely and why do you think that's critical for your students because sometimes you have you have a dude day and then you have a post date and so I just feel like it's too confusing and have them two dates yeah I I can say you have to experiment with that a week and work on that and try to experiment okay thank you cuz yeah I've never I have an account you know if it's possible to not see this can I suggest do when you put it back into your the resources you could add something to it so that the postage change change the wording are going to edit and just change one thing and then the post date with change Mercy PDF experiments rain unpublished it that doesn't change anything I don't know I didn't really prepare for this so I think they ever had a good idea about change changing something about it that might change the post date where do you change it what where what where so didn't make the change that it you would check the gear click on the gear and then click edit and then change something about that particular post okay so let's look for I wonder if you could just lie add a comment within it when you edit it and say this is the updated version and if that would change it I just made a change to my world history 2 course yesterday and it doesn't change that at all it's still showing the date from September so don't think making any changes to it is going to do perfect that at all I just got that part of me maybe the other option would be to remove even though it's a trouble you want to recycle if you want to change the date you probably have to delete it and then you know yeah yeah what I'm trying to do is okay let's let's go back to my assignments Okay so yeah I didn't really prepare for this so getting way off we can just leave this behind Berry black and work with you maybe we can experiment just like I'm doing with your different accounts and see happens as a teacher and then see what happens as a student okay so Banana case are are you fairly clear about this whole idea of grading yes so there you see them here is there anything that Oasis taxi there was some questions in the chat that I have an address so let's see do we get a new shell course in schoology dashboard for spring kind of answer did oh okay or we have to modify and use that you're so courses automatically create you want to read it out loud for everybody to show Corazon Diaz answer is your shell courses automatically created for each section if you want to you can create custom course in manually add the students okay that's what we've talked about that way you can customize your materials by copying resources from your current course and the newly updated Des Master courses that will roll out next week I was just added that to save only ESL ESL have a certain perspective that apply to all of the the teachers right open regarding the new Master courses for DSL I thought that we would probably be recycling what we've using in the fall semester I think that was one of the last thoughts that were publicly mentioned and then we could pick some up and switch them around how do you prefer I know that every teacher decides to do what he or she wants in terms of how to offer their assignments how are we strongly encouraging teachers to use Beastmaster courses I've been but now that I feel a lot more confident with what I've been doing I wanted to I wanted to correlate a lot of those lessons from the fall with units in my book because quite a few of them correspond to units in my pocket. Kind of like to go in order from my book just so everything kind of flows more easily for the student is there any here that knows if they're going to be great modifications or minor modifications to miss King is working on that specifically so that the modifications are not going to be here they're going to be you know we're cleaning up typos you know taking out some things and as I said before were delineating between A and B level in so cases but also they're going to be renamed so that it's not Week 1 week 2 week 3 etcetera but instead they'll just have a name that you can so you can mix and match as Teresa exactly the way you want to you can end eventually there will be three more units written so that in the end there will be 21 units to choose from and teachers will be able to go in and just choose which one goes with which part of your textbook program who have been forced to make your own course completely from scratch I commiserate with you but certainly you know there were just so I think the reason was there were just so many different CTE courses that in the short time available to the CTE office they could they just could not create courses where's for ESL you basically have you will the five or six levels and that's it and then the academic depart you know they were also able you know to create what actually if you recall it took place in two stages the initial stage way way way back was they just like put textbooks on copy machines and made PDF files of all the papers and all of the assignments you know and that was your first course and then as time went on they actually with the help of teachers you know from very Schools teacher advisors they created a course isn't that process I think it's still going on where as you know essential office there you know they have teams of teachers perhaps who are working on a new job at recourse or working on a new this or knew that and perhaps at some point the CTE department will you know work together with various CTE teachers to develop units and components I know that they're doing that for IET of some of the IAT courses but again it's a numbers and Staffing issue to question just a little bit so I think that because of horses are different and individual has been there it requires a lot of expertise on the part of the teacher that that was one of the reasons we aren't a lot of Master course for those there are a lot of resources I think they shared in this group from Dave Weiser So You Can Dance Tour yesstyle the question that has that mystea asked about what is encouraged or recommended really it's whatever that you feel comfortable with after curriculum you just as in any course you try your best to keep to the curriculum you're all experienced teachers ESL and other departments you know what you're doing so you know what you need to teach you just use the materials there in order to to accomplish that so whether they're the the weekly units or this topic or theme do units from the master courses or they're your own I order the book that we usually use and we will continue to have students order them for ESL online as we have the use that material those materials and and contact information for your student but whatever works were you that accomplishes your purpose of teaching the curriculum has that kind of answer the question yes thank you there was a question about how to see things from the point of view of astute so that's over here under course options you click on course options and view course as and then you know you just pick it as a student however even if you do that with assignments you still don't really see what the student sees you know because the buttons are a little different you know you still don't see the submission button or the submit button also in assessments and things like that you see it what you see would is just different so that's part of the reason why I felt it was important for me to have an actual student account and as part of that actual student account I'm actually taking a class so I get to experience a little bit about what it's like to be a student and manage as a student and if there aren't any further questions Miss fasciano has posted in the chat the sign in sheet patty recipe okay hold on Patty is asking can we enroll ourselves as students in our own courses I don't know I don't think you can you still need to go through a a teacher advisor and I think teacher advisors you know they're not going to let you be a student in your own class however there's no reason why you couldn't take you to learn about computers for mr. Ramirez learn about accounting from mr. Cocky you know I just want to be able to be more than happy to upgrade your skills if you if you haven't taken algebra or whatever since you know high school has a chance to you know refresh your skills and miss miss govier will be happy to teach you about you know being a medical assistant if this whole teaching thing doesn't work out timeline of Patty when we were in training last year number of us were enrolled or added to an ESL course whether it was one two three four five or six and it was named ESL for example for fall 2020 teacher training and I still have those courses I have for level 3 and level 4 and so I'm able to view what what u.s. trainers have provided I believe Mister Ike was one of them and I don't remember the other but anyways I believe you were to Patty that has been very beneficial for me to do my stool the rubric and process of of uploading assignments and such you can do that with each other 74 you can do that with each other like you know if you make Patty a student in your course you can add her to your course and then she can add you to her course you can just get off work with a buddy and see how things work out yeah I like that idea but even if we are teachers teachers can be students and other teachers courses they won't see it differently like I just told you I'm I'm a student is Wilson's morning computer class right but you are totally legit because I'm actually trying to learn access for somebody but you have an SSO you are a member of the community go to the Des sign-in page and fill out a form some teacher advisor may call you and say you know right is not the process Miss Diaz you fill out the form that you want to enroll in a course you know I need the way that you described being able to view it from a student's perspective is looking it you already went through that process with us I think that's just fine we don't need to go go down that road unless you're really interested in viewing each other horses Roy had a question Roy what was your question respect to the let me take a look here see what it's called going to the course the access code because you have a custom horse students don't populate automatically from Desi so you have to open manually so with respect to the access code is there any way we can set it up so when we give it to a student it has to be approved by the teacher and it's in the email for example or or is there any such setting don't send that email and there's yeah you can add a student here and email and this add an email with the access code is there where you at Roy this is mighty my sandbox course notice that on the left side there's an access code that says reset but on the right side there's a little checkbox same access code and it says Reply on the right side I just clipped the members click on the members become members and it's right there now the difference maybe let's say again you have a custom course okay and then that you have a new semester I think reset will change that access code for the new so if I haven't exactly so let me just try that right now so if it ends in b dubs 6 if I click on reset are you sure users will no longer be able to use the old code that's fine with me yeah this worked out perfect I just tried it what's the effects and so now there's a brand-new access but again you have the require approval so if you click that and you give that cold out I guess you didn't see you I'm not sure if you get an email internal email message or an external email message or both School through schoology I've seen it before I just could I didn't remember how to activate it in creating your courses thanks I'm here to try to answer your questions okay I see Miss Boosie on yes very berry juices at first I didn't forget her I just looking I was looking at the pictures and I both of you and then the way my screen is set up you are on the left and she's on the right so I she said she's she's a sweetheart go ahead only because the only question is something that Patty King said which is at Paddock did you want you know we have the course optionvue we can view but that's different than what you want to do if we can view the page course is an option on the left side that you wanted to do something different yeah he's actually explain to me yeah she enlightened me which is fantastic but I really wanted to be able to see that submit the submit the whole submission thing as a student to be able to show it to them that's what I want I give my students I can send it to there is a video a teacher very good I want it thank you said that my student shows in the submit button bee stinger detox it's so very my question was you do I as far as the the the messages that I send to my students you know there's the income inbox and then there's the outdoor sent and I know that if I press on their name of course in the members and I can go to send a message it's such a butt is is there a way because you know there's a lot of students in the class and in the different classes and I want to be able to figure out like right away what was the last one they say they they sent to me in the shortest amount of time as possible because I I think I spend too much time you know trying to Define that particular message is there a faster way Co-op to see all of the messages to see all the messages it's just that view all thing at the top of my head I think so just at home okay so we're certain running a little bit over time by I took a look at the attendance sheet and I see there are 24 people who sign Indian it looks like right now we have 22 participants so that sounds about right cuz somebody may have taken off a little bit early so but again if you haven't had a chance to sign the attendance sheet do that and then the other thing that I would like to do is I'm going to share one more thing and I will be sending out submitted their email the the agenda for today when I get around to finalizing but I'm very proud to announce the approved schedule for next semester's we all would technology Workshop series at North Valley Occupational Center and they start right away January 29th you'll notice that we have a lot of participation by co-presenters see if I can go ahead and get the latest I just mute everybody for a moment I appreciate it but I'm in I'm in a meeting right now and so you'll see that I think most of these are very pertinent a lot of things about using Google Google apps with you know especially with in schoology and so I encourage you to continue to attend into the next semester and like always you still get the district sponsored training rate or you count your Workshop attendance for step advancement purposes so without further Ado let's there any more questions I think we can move on into the weekend thank you for are you did a great job as a everyone who's been well sharing your knowledge it was a good let me turn off
