ALEX

ALEX is an interactive website which is set up for teachers and students in Alabama to use as a tool for the classroom. With ALEX you have access to many different reference materials, learning plans, activity ideas, web links and you can even gain access to the Access program which I will be discussing in a future blog. I was very impressed at how easy it was to navigate through this website and the vast array of material that is available to you. For example I want to be a Social studies teacher in high school. I went on to the ALEX link then clicked on lesson plans, and was able to put in my study of interest and put in the grade level at which I am interested in teaching. It then gave me an overview of the subject matter in which I would be using in the classroom for teaching my subject. It is amazing!!
I am very excited about this website. I know it is a website that I will be using quite often. It takes me to web links that are associated with the subject matter in which I enter. It is so easy and handy I am just thrilled but the possibilities that I will explore while using the website!! It seems to have every tool that you need in order to find out information whether you are on the administration side, teacher side, or even student side. I am sure the possibilities are going to be endless of what I will find as I continue to use the ALEX website. What a wonder place that has been provided to me as a future educator.
