Technology Thursday 9/8/21
We hope everyone had a wonderful holiday weekend! We have two quick updates for you this week.
First, MusicPlay Online has been purchased for all K-5 music teachers in the district. An email was sent to all elementary music teachers on Wednesday, September 8th with instructions for accessing their license. Since this app is just for teachers, the app is available in the staff library for them to add to their own ClassLink page if they wish for easy access.
Second, we are continuing to troubleshoot sporadic access issues with Lexia. This is primarily with high school EC and OCS courses not showing up. Thank you for your patience as we work to add additional course codes to the nightly sync with Lexia.
Lastly, we are working on a schedule for virtual training opportunities for all staff, as well as sessions specifically for our Technology and Media contacts. If there is a topic you would like to learn more about this year, please email us at digitallearning@johnston.k12.nc.us
Have a wonderful week!

Lexia Kiosk option
To assist elementary schools with Lexia Core5 Reading we created an additional method to access the program. "JCPS Lexia Core5" has been added to the chromebook apps kiosk (same place you find NWEA)". Using this method eliminates the need for students logging into the chromebook prior to logging into the Lexia program. Note: each time a student completes their work it is important to click "Restart Session" at the top-left corner of the screen prior to use by another student.
This will only show up for elementary schools.
