G.+KET+EncycloMedia+My+Classrooms


 * Here is a powerpoint showing the new formulation of KET plus new Discovery Education features including changes to My Content, My Builder Tools, and My Classrooms.**
 * KET EncycloMedia (KEM) now has a new way to give students access to content from the service. It is called the "My Classrooms" Feature. When coupled with the pre-existing "My Builder Tools" feature, teachers now have a lot of flexibility in how they provide students access to content. To see these features, go to the KET EncycloMedia homepage. There you will see a blue navigation bar in the upper third of the page. Below is a screen capture showing where this is located. In this screen capture I have highlighted in pink, two items. One is "My Builder Tools" and the other is "My Classrooms".**




 * __My Builder Tools option:__ gives a teacher the capability to create an online assignment, quiz, or writing prompt they can give students access to either by providing students a web address and assignment code that will take them to the assignment, or they can assign any of the "built" resources to their students via the My Classrooms feature.**
 * __My Classrooms option:__ gives a teacher the capability to create any number of "virtual classrooms". Students are added to these classes either individually by typing in their name, user name and password, or with a school or district administrator's help, student information can be "bulk" uploaded from the school's or district's Active Directory. The teacher can then easily choose the students from a roster and add them to as many virtual classroom's as that they want to create.**
 * Here is a prototype powerpoint that provides some details about the newest Builder tools and My Classrooms features. As more information is released this will be updated:**
 * Here is a PDF with instructions to help school and district administrators upload student information from Active Directory in order that teachers can create student accounts:**
