Actively Learn
With the help of this grant, eighth-grade English students participate in an online learning platform that encourages student engagement in language arts skills. Through this platform, students develop deeper connections to the text they read, allowing them to expand their thinking and explain their answers in more detail. Articles and short stories can be uploaded using this program, and teachers can embed questions within the text, allowing students to read smaller portions at a time to answer questions. Teachers can review answers and provide feedback so students can redo their answers immediately, helping them achieve at a proficient level or above.
