Edgenuity
Edgenuity uses a combination of animations, simulations, video-led direct instruction, relevant websites and a myriad of activities that support the lesson’s topic. Students have a wealth of information at their fingertips that can be reviewed as many times as necessary to achieve mastery. Students will also have the support of a teacher from their school. Edgenuity is appropriate for students who want video-led instruction with limited teacher support from their home school. Edgenuity offers a variety of courses including AP, honors and general education courses. Edgenuity offers language support for English language learners as well.
Edgenuity Specifics:
- Edgenuity will provide courses in: Math, English Language Arts, Social Studies and Science. At this time, no elective courses are offered through this program.
- The program builds tools into the platform including a graphing calculator, interactive periodic table, reading materials, videos, guided notes and notepad to help students complete activities.
- Lessons are designed with explicit instruction supported with scaffolding. Information is broken into manageable chunks. Real-life connections are made to lesson concepts.
- The courses use audio, video and text content and different types of assignments including writing assignments, projects and graded tasks to support different learning styles.
- English Language Learners (ELLs) can translate a text into their native language or select the option to hear it read aloud in their native language. The audio speed can be adjusted to best suit the individual’s needs.
- Parents and students can access progress and grades through the Edgenuity platform. Student information will not be on MyWeber until final grades have been posted. Users have access to a “Student Progress Report,” which includes details related to progress, the overall grade, estimated time remaining for completion of the course and a color coded progress bar.
