6 Orange iPad Information
2015-2016
Homework is posted/recorded:
- All homework will be posted on the board in both homerooms for students to photograph during homeroom at the end of the day.
- Teachers will record the homework in the Schoology app, which students can access on their iPad. Information for connecting with Schoology can be found by using the attached pamphlet.
- Other homework apps are acceptable, but we would ask that students check with a teacher before using them.
Schoology:
- As a team we are looking to transfer our web functionality to Schoology during the course of this year. The district is transitioning to using Schoology at the high school level and are exploring using it at other levels. Schoology is an excellent program, but one that neither Ms. Lawson or I are particularly familiar with. Please bear with us as we make the transition and we will send relevant updates to you as needed.
Team iPad Rules:
Students will receive an IPad agreement during the first few days of school that will include the following terms. Both you and your child will be asked to sign it and return it to their homeroom teacher. Please do so as students will not be allowed to use iPads until the agreement is signed.
- I will carry and use the iPad safely, responsibly, and with care.
- I will always carry my iPad from class to class unless I know an instructor is not planning on using it during class time.
- I will not use the iPad in “No iPad” zones: gym, bus, hallways, cafeteria, morning homeroom.
- I will not allow people other than my parents to handle my iPad without teacher instruction.
- The iPad is primarily an academic tool.
- I will carry my iPad license with me at all times. Any teacher in the building may ask me to view it.
- I will use “work email” for work only and will keep communication positive and on topic.
- When I submit for polls my answers will always relate to content.
- I will not be found surfing the internet when I am not asked to be.
- My iPad will come to school each day fully charged!
