Digital Curriculum for Blended Learning

Through Accelerate Education's IDEAL Learning Library, teachers are provided with an innovative and flexible tool to help them meet the individual needs of their students. Teachers gain computer-based educational tools that provide a variety of lessons and assessments not normally found in a traditional classroom environment. This provides instructional alternatives that greatly increase the number and quality of instructional tools available to the teacher.

Meeting the School's Objectives

Today's classroom teacher is expected to use data-driven decision making to individualize instruction and meet the learning needs of each individual student. This is an integral part of the process by which the school meets accountability goals and ensures that each student shows appropriate academic growth. Most teachers though, do not have the resources to do this as effectively as possible. As much as they want to meet the needs of each student, the goal is too often unattainable.

Benefits of Digital Curriculum

The use of Accelerate Education's digital curriculum is not limited to individualization, though. Collaborative groups or even entire classes can learn together when the teacher determines that mode of learning is most appropriate. Fully prepared assessments can spare the teacher from the time required to create new ones and free up more time for personal instruction.

How does Blended Learning Work?

Accelerate will provide participating classrooms access to high quality online curriculum. The teacher can choose to use this curriculum in the most appropriate manner. An entire class can participate in a computer lab setting; collaborative groups can work together at a single work station; or individual students can progress at their own pace on supplementary material.
