00:0-1	that regard . Okay , so let's move ahead .
00:03	Now . Let's get into the meat off . This
00:07	this is the beast . This is what you need
00:11	to master Andi . Uh , this is not easy
00:17	. So let's take a look . Um , hold
00:22	on one second . Okay ? So , distance learning
00:26	, this is our subject . And we've got five
00:30	spokes on this wheel learning systems delivery systems , instructional
00:35	and curriculum system management systems and security , cybersecurity and
00:40	support systems . So we're gonna through the next 30
00:45	minutes , we're gonna take them one by one ,
00:47	and we're gonna go through . What do they do
00:50	? Who are the providers of this ? What are
00:53	the key management issues that you need to address ?
00:58	Um , so , you know , just to give
01:02	a little bit of a preview , you know ,
01:04	learning systems or learn learning management systems . You know
01:07	, digital assistance , professional development programs , the delivery
01:13	systems or classroom management . Virtual classroom . So we're
01:17	using zoom here . That's one of these things .
01:20	Uh , instructional and curricular systems of curricular management ,
01:26	instructional design tools , management systems . This is keeping
01:32	the school running , keeping track of attendance and grades
01:38	. Um , commute , setting up a system where
01:40	everybody can communicate with each other and cybersecurity and hardware
01:45	cybersecurity to keep you out of trouble . Hardware systems
01:49	so that everything works . Uh , everything works beautifully
01:54	. So what if people used as they've made the
01:59	the switch ? Um , during the co vid ,
02:04	uh , epidemic recently ? You know , the recent
02:08	switch Thio Thio online classes is the most common tools
02:14	were operational , and this kind of makes sense .
02:19	So , you know , 50% were using these kind
02:21	of operational tools . So this is sort of along
02:24	the idea of we're going to just take our class
02:27	and move of it online . So now , instead
02:30	of meeting in room 204 at nine o'clock , we're
02:35	going to meet in a zoom meeting A to that
02:40	time . And so there was more focused on that
02:45	than there was on none . The curriculum developing new
02:49	curriculum , changing the curriculum , adapting the curriculum .
02:52	And it makes sense , right ? This was I'm
02:54	sure this , you know , for you to this
02:57	was the system . You have to just get it
02:59	working in some regard . But I think as the
03:03	system develops as we spend more time online , the
03:08	effort is gonna The technol technology system is going to
03:14	get less focus and the curriculum and , uh ,
03:19	learning tools are gonna get mawr focus . So let's
03:23	take a look . Learning Management Systems is the first
03:28	module . Um , it's for both students and teachers
03:33	, and it creates a central hub where educators can
03:37	upload organized , of course , material for student access
03:41	. Um , usually does not include the content on
03:46	bond . You know it provides you with the ability
03:50	to integrate content creation platforms . It generates reports on
03:55	participation , grades , quizzes , course activities , etcetera
04:00	. And here are some of the big providers of
04:03	this so Google classroom least what I've seen . Maybe
04:08	some of you can comment on this . If you're
04:09	currently using Google Classroom , Google has made this free
04:14	Andi . They have a very particular strategy in mind
04:19	. This is they want to get you and the
04:21	students and everybody and for the whole world , for
04:24	that matter , into their ecosystem . And this is
04:26	a tool to do that . So it integrates Google
04:30	documents , it integrates Gmail . It integrates , You
04:35	know , I don't know everything else that Google does
04:38	. YouTube , obviously . And so this is a
04:41	strategy that technology companies have used for decades , starting
04:46	with IBM , so I B M gave mainframe computers
04:54	to universities when they got going with that product in
04:58	the 19 sixties and seventies . And the idea was
05:02	, they want students and teachers so learn on their
05:06	platform so that when they left school they would go
05:09	out and they would buy IBM computers for businesses and
05:14	government wherever they were working . Apple did the same
05:17	thing with giving giving schools , um , pro giving
05:21	schools there , uh , Mac on earlier than Mac
05:27	, whatever Apple something or other . And so ,
05:30	you know , Google is just taking a page out
05:33	of their book and doing something similar . You know
05:36	, it's a good program . There's no , you
05:38	know , no way around it . I've used blackboard
05:41	in canvas . Very similar blackboard . Um , I
05:47	find sort of uh huh . I don't know ,
05:51	overly confusing . I mean , it has every functionality
05:54	, but it z a little bit confusing . It's
05:57	not free . It's not cheap . Um , they've
06:00	just come out with a new version 9.1 . Um
06:03	, is much more like canvas , which is a
06:05	cleaner version of it . So these air , you
06:09	know , mood Eliza is a Google product , a
06:12	z well , and , um , but Google classroom
06:17	, a school can get an account and then it
06:19	sort of integrates with the whole school . That's what
06:22	they're looking to dio to get everybody . Okay ,
06:28	so digital learning programs , eso these deliver content online
06:36	. They're interactive . They have a large range of
06:38	learning . Resource is , um they integrate with the
06:42	learning management system and the curriculum management system to supplement
06:48	students needs . They track progress on bond on you
06:55	know , these air . Also , some of these
06:57	names will be familiar to you , and so they're
07:01	basically focused on the content that's going in the system
07:07	. Yeah . Um , let me stop here to
07:11	take a look at the chat , see if anyone's
07:15	had any questions , comments , um , and yes
07:21	. So let's see . Julie said yes . She's
07:22	a G suite school , so they use Google classroom
07:26	for everything . So that's great . We'll call ,
07:29	you know ? Well , you know , look for
07:31	you and others to tell us how that experience has
07:35	has been . Um , Okay , so next let
07:43	me just go back . Where are we on our
07:45	clock here . So you know , we started here
07:48	. We're talking about delivery systems now . We're getting
07:51	into this area . Curricular curriculum management , digital learning
07:57	, um , programs , uh , digital learning programs
08:03	. So This is for teachers and students . And
08:06	what does it dio ? It makes virtual lessons engaging
08:09	. It's adaptive . It assesses students performance . It
08:13	tracks progress online . Um , they integrate with less
08:17	, um , and curriculum management systems . And here
08:21	are Oops , I did this already . I'm sorry
08:24	. I'm one slide behind . Okay . Sorry .
08:28	Digital Assessment Solutions Serves me right for rolling back the
08:35	slides . Digital Assessment solutions . This is for school
08:41	leaders , for for district superintendents , for teachers ,
08:47	for parents . So , basically , for everybody ,
08:49	it creates customized tests incorporating a variety of questions that
08:54	administers the tests that provide security systems for this for
08:59	these tests , such as rotating the way the questions
09:02	are providing a rigid clock to answer the questions ,
09:08	minimize the ability for students . Thio , get outside
09:15	ball . They're doing a test . And who were
09:19	some of the companies that do this ? You know
09:22	, Renaissance Study island . And you elastic Ramos .
09:27	You know , I ready , which is a big
09:29	one . So online programs for teacher training as we
09:34	move along online training for teachers . So obviously we
09:39	want to expand teachers skill sets . We can't bring
09:43	all the teachers together in a class for an hour
09:47	a day . of training in a computer room .
09:51	Eso we need to use online tools for this ,
09:55	and so we want to expand their skills . We
09:59	need to do this constantly , Absolutely constantly . Um
10:04	, it boost their productivity's and performance . The more
10:07	they know , the more depth they are . The
10:09	Mawr this gets wired into their thinking , and the
10:12	more it gets wired into their into their hands so
10:16	that they do this all automatically without without thinking about
10:21	it . And these online programs can be done anywhere
10:25	, right ? They can be , you know ,
10:27	done while you're riding the bus . So here a
10:30	few of them , Um course Sarah , which I
10:34	mentioned or , you know , has a bunch of
10:36	them , um , Otis for educators Simple k 12
10:41	. There's a bunch of these Andi , uh ,
10:46	you as as a leader , need toe . Have
10:50	an opinion about which one you think is best for
10:54	your teachers in the system that you're using . Okay
11:00	. Delivery systems were moving along virtual classroom tools ,
11:04	so this is like zoom live video streaming . This
11:09	creates is much interaction is possible between the teachers on
11:16	the students and also between the students and each other
11:19	. So live video screen sharing , um , rich
11:24	media interactive presentations . Uh , students can collaborate online
11:30	by using , you know , side rooms or other
11:33	tools . You can record a session , which then
11:37	students who couldn't attend class or students who want to
11:40	review it , or parents who want to go back
11:43	to find out what something meant can access it .
11:47	Onda . It can also be used for real time
11:50	. This is an interesting , you know . So
11:53	these air names you all should know , right ?
11:55	Google meat , which is , um , you know
11:58	their competitors to Zoom Zoom , which we're using now
12:02	Cisco Wet X , go to meeting . I think
12:05	this is one that is becoming a , uh ,
12:11	commodity . So in the beginning , with Skype ,
12:15	this was novel Theo . The the hardware systems didn't
12:21	handle it very well . Those of you who were
12:24	early Skype use ALS users will knows extremely frustrating to
12:28	use . And the pictures were very fuzzy and you
12:31	lost connections . Often , this has all gotten better
12:35	partially because of these programs and partially because of the
12:38	Internet backbone has gotten more robust . Um , I
12:42	think basically we're going to a point where any ,
12:46	uh , classroom management software that you use is gonna
12:49	have this already built into it . But in the
12:52	meantime , you may have to use one of these
12:55	one of these systems as a separate , Um ,
12:59	you know , separate platform . Um , one of
13:04	the things we've provided for you is a list of
13:09	, you know , we call it in the slide
13:11	collaborative learning tools . You know , this is because
13:13	we want to sound very professional , but I think
13:17	really these air , like cool learning tools . Um
13:20	, these are little things . Widgets , apple .
13:24	It's , um , uh , specialized things that really
13:30	can create personality in an online learning environment . Um
13:35	, most of them are quite simple . They're not
13:38	essential . I think teachers who are mawr comfortable with
13:44	technology and who wanna put mawr of their own personality
13:48	into it will be more likely to use these .
13:53	This is also a great way for you as a
13:55	manager to suggest something to a teacher that simple and
14:00	easy . And then when they use it to give
14:04	them praise and reinforcement for for doing that . Um
14:14	Okay . Okay . Okay . Some other . Okay
14:24	, let me move ahead . Okay . Instruction and
14:26	curriculum design systems . So , uh , these air
14:35	for teachers and department heads and curriculum . Uh ,
14:41	and instructors and developers on . Do you know these
14:47	handle the development and implementation so you can map your
14:51	curriculum you can create . They provide you with lesson
14:53	planning templates . They have standard alignment guides . They
14:57	have a resource library . That's part of their system
15:01	on bond . Here are some of them , uh
15:07	, that you can use the links toe . All
15:10	of these things that we provide here are in the
15:13	notes on the slides , which you'll have access to
15:18	. So if you want to go through and and
15:21	and look at their websites and see some demonstrations ,
15:25	you can just , uh , you know , scroll
15:27	through that that list . Okay . Management systems us
15:35	for this is , you know , basically for running
15:39	your multiple subsystems . Andi , uh , for maximizing
15:44	stakeholder information and making communication as easy as possible .
15:51	One thing I've seen as a manager is that if
15:55	you don't communicate with people , they assume the worst
16:00	. So if they haven't heard from you in a
16:02	while , they assume things were not going well ,
16:05	and it kind of triggers fear with them . It
16:08	triggers the lack of confidence . So these communication tools
16:13	are valuable to you as a manager , a za
16:17	leader you wanna be on these all the time ?
16:21	You wanna be communicating with parents ? You wanna be
16:25	coordinating with teachers with your management team ? Eso these
16:32	, um , these systems , you know , create
16:35	report card . They managed Karen access basically their communication
16:40	managers , um , in a school setting . Here's
16:44	a bunch of them . I'm sure you've heard of
16:46	a bunch of these , Um and this is an
16:51	essential part of your playbook . Student information systems .
16:57	So some schools prefer integrating with enhanced student information systems
17:03	to take advantage of additional features . But what Basically
17:11	doing Milan Probably not relevant . If you are moving
17:15	totally to an online , um , online environment ,
17:18	they the attendance management records , great book management .
17:26	Some other systems have great books , you know ,
17:29	built into them is well , ah , compliance in
17:31	reporting . Maybe we'll talk about more of this in
17:34	a later class . Um , what I've seen is
17:38	that during this time , government required compliance and reporting
17:43	gets more onerous on , But at the time when
17:47	when you really don't have the time your own time
17:50	Thio work on this , the government is asking form
17:55	or , you know , this is sort of unfunded
17:58	government requirements and eso these systems . These student information
18:04	systems interface with that . Here are a bunch of
18:08	them . Great link . Um , Alma . Infinite
18:13	campus . All right . Um , are you regretting
18:19	having become a , uh , education administrator yet ?
18:24	All of this stuff , it's a lot other communication
18:28	platforms . This is , you know , automate reminders
18:32	. Set up parent teacher meetings , allow for reporting
18:36	of problems , allow for messaging . Um , on
18:42	collaboration available to basically everybody in the system . Um
18:49	uh , generally not for students . And here's a
18:53	bunch of these , um , you know , so
18:59	again , part of your your tool , kid .
19:03	All right , let's talk about security . Um ,
19:08	security is no joke . So the data we had
19:16	is that a couple of years ago , there were
19:19	712 reported cyber attacks on schools in the United States
19:26	. That number is certainly low . A lot of
19:29	people don't report them . Um , all kinds of
19:32	problems from them . Um , data breach . Right
19:36	. You have a responsibility to keep your data confidential
19:39	. This is for pa . You people can use
19:42	ransom , your system and your data , and you
19:45	can see this is not rare . Accidental disclosure ,
19:50	right ? Somebody sends the wrong file to the wrong
19:53	computer and you've got a problem . People fishing .
19:57	Um , in your admitted with administrators looking to get
20:02	to get into into their into the access to their
20:06	system through them etcetera , you know , other malware
20:11	eso This is no joke . Um , so let
20:17	me say this about it is that if you end
20:20	up having a cyber security problem , this will be
20:25	laid at your door . Eso you need to focus
20:29	on it . This may not be what you care
20:34	much about , but it's important . You need to
20:37	have a team that handles it . You need to
20:40	charge them with the mission of keeping current on tools
20:45	and making sure that there's cybersecurity every step of the
20:50	way . So , fundamentally , there are two types
20:53	of security systems and encryption systems , and this is
20:57	data that's sitting in a file could be encrypted ,
21:01	and data that's moving between systems can be encrypted when
21:06	it leaves and then de encrypted when it arrives .
21:10	Onda . So there are systems for each of these
21:15	, and you need to make sure that all of
21:18	these are in place . Um , like I say
21:22	, you've got a major problem . You'll have parents
21:24	screaming . Um , you'll have students who tell you
21:27	. They can't do any work . They can't get
21:28	onto their system and you'll have , You know your
21:33	boss is all over you . So here's a bunch
21:37	of these that provide cybersecurity solutions . Some of them
21:42	are built into other systems that you might use .
21:45	But I would say you need to be at least
21:49	familiar with what the's cybersecurity issues and solutions are ,
21:55	and you need to manage the process on and on
00:0-1	.
