A.L.E.X.

Thanks to Ms. Averitt in my Educational Media class at the University of South Alabama, I was introduced to a program that is provided by the state of Alabama to assist teachers in and out of the classroom. ALEX, which stands for Alabama Learning Exchange, provides a multitude of information for teachers and potential teachers. The information provided ranges from lesson plans to to professional learning opportunities.

This is a great tool to expand learning and to study different ways of preparing lessons. The lessons plans are standard and very easy to adapt into a potential teacher's lesson. In this new age of technology where information can be shared at an exponential rate, it is important for educators to continue to expand the classroom and make learning possible for everyone.
