eLearning Days
LCSC is initiating eLearning days for both planned and emergency school closures during the 2020-21 school year.
Planned eLearning Days: October 26-28
-
eLearning Assurances
LCSC eLearning days will meet the following assurances, set forth by the Indiana Department of Education, in order for the day to be considered an instructional day.
-
Internet Access
Our school corporation can demonstrate access to digital learning for students and teachers away from our buildings.
By establishing a five-day eLearning window for each day of unplanned school cancellations, students will have adequate time to complete their assigned lessons. Students in grades K-5 are issued iPads, and students in grades 6-12 receive MacBook Air devices for school-related work while at school or at home while following established policies and procedures. LCSC maintains a list of public WiFi networks.
-
Instructor Access
Teachers will be directly reachable from students and parents to facilitate and support instruction.
During eLearning days, teachers will be accessible during regular school hours. Teachers will inform students of their preferred means of communication on an eLearning day.
-
Platform Experience
All teachers and students have access to, and experience using, online platforms and digital resources for learning.
Canvas is the LCSC learning management system.
-
Learning Targets
All students will be informed of learning targets for the day by 9 a.m.
In the event of a two-hour delay that becomes a cancellation, students will be informed by 11 a.m.
-
Work Continuity
Student work will cover content that would have been addressed had school been in session in a traditional setting.
-
Accommodation Support
All students who have accommodations for instruction will be provided with or have access to those accommodations.
Special education students will receive accommodations outlined in their Individualized Educational Plan (IEP). English Learners will also receive accommodations according to their Individual Learning Plan (ILP). Students with Section 504 Plans will receive appropriate accommodations as outlined in their 504 Plan.
Conferences will be held for students, as needed, to address any unique circumstances regarding each student’s learning needs to support them on eLearning days. In some cases, an addendum to the established learning plan may be sufficient.
-
Offline Support
For students with disabilities who do not use an online platform for learning or for whom an online platform is not appropriate, teachers will provide parents/caregivers with appropriate educational materials and learning activities for student use.
Alternative plans will be developed for students as appropriate. Such alternative plans may include prepared activities focused on the student’s individual learning plan.
-
Individual Needs
For limited English proficient students, teachers will provide parents/caregivers appropriate educational materials and learning activities for student use per the Individual Learning Plan.
The ILP Conference meetings at the beginning of the school year must include the unique plans for eLearning days for each student to address this assurance. -
Work Measurement
Students will demonstrate time on task and/or equivalent learning growth for the time.
Students will report attendance through Canvas. Assignments must be completed and submitted in the five-day eLearning window.
