Welcome to the MS Computer Lab Blog!

The objective of our blog is to share information about how we integrate our technology curriculum into the subject area curriculum. The foundation of this effort is the methodology of team teaching the lessons with the Middle School subject area teachers. Each post describes a particular lesson, the software used, some of the skills that were targeted, and the number of days that were spent in the lab.

Aleks, the Online Math Program

Some of the 7th grade Math students are involved in a pilot program where they do lessons with an online math program, Aleks, that charts their progress from day to day. The students usually meet in a regular classroom with the laptop cart and after a short introduction from their teacher, they work independently (from the other students) for the remainder of the class in their online account.
