Week 2

ALEX, Alabama Learning Exchange, offers many different resources that can advance the way the a teacher works in their classroom. there are different fields of study in which a teacher can go to and get different questions for a topic to discuss in the classroom. Lesson plans can be found and made on this website as well. There are also web links to find annoted education web sites as well. Not only that there is unlimited teaching and learning tools, as well as best practices to use for your classroom. Many schools have a limited amount of courses offered. This a lot of times can be troublesome for AP students. This website offers ACCESS, which is a way for these students to take courses on-line which will further there education farther than what may be offered at their school.

It was surprising to me that a website such as this is offered. It has tons of information that will help me as a teacher. The fields of study will help me alone especially if I am stuck on what kind of questions to ask on a certain subject. Hopefully this website can make me more creative in the ways that I will teach and help keep my kids interested in the subject at hand.
