Titan Tidbits

Week 0 Is In the Books...Looking Ahead to Week 1

Give your students (and yourselves) a HUGE round of applause for their effort, attention, cooperation, and patience as we navigated through the challenges of Week 0. Your Mighty Titan Team (all 40 of us) is working hard to resolve some issues and rework some systems to make Week 1 run smoothly.


Below is a guide intended to address some of your questions.

 

DEFINITIONS


Office Hours: The time designated for students to check in with their teachers for help with assignments. Students were sent a link to SignUp Genius and asked to reserve a time that will be theirs throughout the distance-learning period.


Water Cooler: A daily Zoom chitchat with various Administrative and Instructional personnel to answer your specific questions and concerns.


Google Classroom vs Edgenuity:


Google Classroom is a tool for teachers to communicate assignments, messages, grades, etc. with students. Login for Google Classroom is the student's Legacy email and password.


Edgenuity houses instructional videos with course content. Students watch the videos, take quizzes, and progress through the courses. Edgenuity logins are made up of the student's last name and ID number found on the schedule or report card: LASTNAMEID#. The universal password is titan10.


Kami: An app that allows teachers to turn paper assignments into interactive documents that students can complete and upload to Google Classroom.


OnRamps: A partnership with the University of Texas to offer distance education through a dual enrollment model for high school students to engage in authentic college experiences.


TSI: The Texas Success Initiative Assessment is a program which determines the appropriate level of dual credit college course work for an incoming student. The TSI test consists of three separate exams: Mathematics, Reading, and Writing.
