Aligning Scope And Sequence Of Online Curriculum
There are many advantages to aligning the scope and sequence of online curriculum to that of the classroom. VLN’s comprehensive platform empowers teachers to build an engaging and rigorous online program. One differentiator that our customers enjoy is our ability to synchronize online courses to classroom instruction. The process starts with our library of structured online courses pre-populated with meaningful lessons based on the specific topics and subjects covered. Teachers can then adapt and customize courses by utilizing our searchable content library or add existing content from the classroom including recorded lectures, graphics, videos, and worksheets. The sequence of specific topics can be adjusted to match a particular textbook or syllabus. By aligning the scope and sequence of a school’s curriculum and online courses, schools can ensure students learn the same lessons, whether at home, or in the classroom each week of the year. Most import to educators, this alignment makes the transition from remote learning back into the classroom easier for both the instructor and the student.
