There are several great media resources that our teachers and students can access that Central Rivers AEA subscribes to. The login information may be found from your building media specialist.
This may be a challenge if you don't happen to remember the login details or if you would like students to be able to access these resources from home. We really can't publicly share the username/passwords.
I have a solution with ClassLink:
 | I added a folder called Media Resources to your ClassLink dashboard. It may look a little different depending on whether you are using the iPad App or the website. I added 14 of these media resources to this folder. A single click with automatically log any student or teacher to the given resource. For students, I only included those resources that are age appropriate. For example, Bookflix will only show up on younger students' dashboards and SIRS Researcher will only show up on high school devices. |
NEW as of 10/29/18: Britannica online has several new features. Read about them at this link.
BONUS nugget of information #1:
 | ClassLink may be customized. Click on the edit icon in the upper right of your screen. You can organize your icons, add and customize folders, and even add your own websites. This feature is available for all teachers and students. I can quickly add other web resources to all of your students' dashboards, as requested. ClassLink can be a useful way to 'remember' website passwords. Click here to read my post on August 8th, which has more introductory details about the service. In your Settings, you will find a 'Password Locker' where passwords may be updated as needed. |
BONUS nugget of information #2: New login features
| There are new ways to log into a ClassLink account. |
| Many students have been using the QuickCards this school year, but had only been able to use the front (selfie) camera on the iPad. The back camera may now be used. This will be very handy for cards that are fastened to a table, pencil box, etc. |  |
| Facial recognition may also be used to log in. Let me know if you want to try this. I don't know if it works any better than the QuickCards. Here are the directions to setting it up -> -> |
 | ClassLink can provide reports on how much it is used and how it is used. In the first third of the school year, Samantha Hoven, GMS math teacher, has the most teacher logins. Check out the swag she received for this honor. |
Please let me know if you have any questions.
