LiveBinder 101 Register for CEUs on the Staff Development

Website. Today’s Learning Target:

I can create a LiveBinder for my school, grade/course, or class that is organized and easy to navigate.

Performance Task: Your principal has asked you to make a model LiveBinder that will be used to train other teachers and administrators in your school. The LiveBinder should focus on one topic, course, or grade level, and should be neatly organized and easily navigated. This LiveBinder will be used for collaborative and evaluative purposes within the school and within classrooms. The rubric provides you with more details about how your LiveBinder will be assessed.
