ALEX

The ALEX" Alabama Learning Exchange" is a very important website offered to teachers. This website gives an array of different subjects and how to create lessons plans. Establishing an ALEX account allows " teachers to create a personal workspace for storing and submitting lessons plans and web pages". ALEX is also neat because it offers teachers web links to authors and stories that are available on the web( for example: children's literature Web guide http://www.acs.ucalgarycal^dkbrown). It also gives a list of appropriate books for students. The distance learning offered through ALEX is also neat because those schools with limited courses, can enroll in the distance learning program. The site keeps teachers updated with all the latest news and "professional development opportunities".
