Communicate 3.2.1 – The Newsletter Quest

Communication is a critical part to the online education experience. There are numerous tools that can make online classes more accessible and keep the lines of communication open and flowing.

Remind 101- It a valuable tool that can allow teachers to send out important messages, reminders, homework assignments, project reminders, test reminders, etc... to all students and parents by sending one text. Parents and students do bare the burden of signing up for the teacher's class.

Newsletters are another critical tool for teachers to utilize in the classroom for online learning. Newsletters can be weekly or monthly. They are a great way to keep parents and students informed of upcoming events, contact information, and much more.

Please see an online newsletter created in "Smore".

Announcements- Announcements are a wonderful way to remind students of important upcoming events in your classroom. An animated announcement can really get the attention of your stakeholders. Please see this link to look at an announcement I made from Voki.
