Online Curriculum System Helps Enhance Collaboration Among Teachers

The Bakersfield Californian (6/5, Barrientos) reports on the "new Bakersfield City School District (BCSD) online curriculum system called Learning Village." The system, launched this year in BCSD, will cost the district "$500,000 for three years," and "is the first of its kind implemented districtwide in California." It "holds digitized textbooks" and allows educators to "create lesson plans online, from anywhere, and share them with others." In addition, it "allows teachers to connect their lesson plans to SMART boards." The Bakersfield Californian explains how teachers throughout BCSD are utilizing the new system to enhance collaboration among peers and classroom instruction.
