Yours in Crew, Roger<\/strong><\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n ATTENDING SYNCHRONOUSLY:<\/strong> Students are expected to be in their scheduled WebEx classes every day. Synchronous WebEx classes happen in the mornings on Monday, Tuesday, Thursday and Friday. Teachers take attendance and we expect students to REMAIN in class and engaged the whole time in order to be \u201cpresent virtually\u201d.<\/p>\n\n\n\n If your student misses one or more live WebEx classes they should email the teacher<\/em><\/strong> or you can call our attendance line so we can keep our attendance records accurate. Our attendance Secretary is Lisa Johnson and she can be reached at 541-355-5429<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n We also track students\u2019 participation in Canvas during their afternoon asynchronous learning time. Students are expected to complete between 2-3 hours per day of asynchronous work (this will vary significantly by student and course load) in the afternoons\/evenings and teachers can track this participation through Canvas Activity reporting function.<\/p>\n\n\n\n This week, the asynchronous work load was likely pretty small. This was intentional and designed to allow students to “find their feet”. You can expect the asynchronous load to increase in the next two weeks.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Canvas is our new District wide Learning Management System (LMS) that teachers and students will use every day for teaching and communication! Parents can download the app too and become an \u201cobserver\u201d on your student\u2019s Canvas account. <\/p>\n\n\n\n Parents: One pager on creating an Observer Account <\/span><\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n Parents and Students: here is the District\u2019s Canvas Help Page<\/span><\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n We encourage you to reach out to teachers whenever you have a question or a concern! Recently, we discovered an error in our staff listing. Download our staff list here<\/a>.<\/a><\/strong> <\/span>Or view a web based version here<\/span><\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n We understand that schedule changes happen! Our last day for schedule changes is Wednesday September 23rd! If you have a change request, you must let us know ASAP using this SCHEDULE CHANGE FORM<\/span><\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n We strongly suggest that students use a keyboard with their iPad and we have put them on our school supply list as a recommended item! Some students are also using a laptop or home computer to access Canvas, WebEx and their other school work. iPads are small!<\/p>\n\n\n\n We have a limited number if iPad keyboards that we can sign out to students! If you are interested, email jennifer.scalley@bend.k12.or.us<\/span><\/a> or call at 541-355-5500.<\/p>\n\n\n\n <\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n Roger will be hosting a Parent Drop In WebEx <\/strong>to hear your impressions of the start of the school year, to answer your questions, and to gather your feedback. Our goal is obviously to ensure our distance learning program is rigorous, supportive, engaging and more!
