As you have probably heard, Visions is changing to a new curriculum delivery model for next year. We will still have launchpad for keeping track of student information (that is called a SIS, student information system), but we will be moving to Pearson GradPoint for our learning management system (LMS).
All coursework will be on Gradpoint. As far as I know, there will be no textbooks or workbooks as all work will be completed online.
Each student will be provided with a Chromebook and internet access, if they don't already have it. (I'm not sure if you are getting the new HP ones on this link or the ones produced by Samsung that the CTs have this year. You can see mine and test it out at our meetings.)
If you would like to research Pearson GradPoint or see a course demo, Click here to visit their website.
Visions CTs have been provided with Chromebooks this year and are focusing our professional development days on learning GradPoint from teacher and student point of view.
I will provide more information as it comes.
