Professional Development
iBridgeConnect provides teachers and administrators with a shared space for delivery and collaboration on professional development contect.
iBridgeConnect provides districts with a technology-rich professional development system for videos, presentations, graphics, audio files, text files, and more. When professional development content is viewed, each teacher has the ability to leave comments about the content, allowing other educators to see their comments and, in turn, create an open online discussion about each unit or content viewed. All professional development content can only be viewed by teachers and administrators using the innovative tagging system in iBridgeConnect.
In addition to uploading and sharing traditional professional development content, schools and districts can upload and share curriculum content. Some examples include: lesson plans, teacher training videos, standards based learning models, rubrics, and more.
Use video trackers to document which users accessed or watched professional development content
Five star rating system encourages students to upload their best work online.
All uploaded content can be voted on by all users, one time. This system eliminates cyber bullying and encourages participation.
All student uploaded content must be approved befor going "live" for other users to view.
All media uploaded by students is sent to a pending folder and must be approved by a teacher or by our optional approval.
Group Pages encourage classroom participation and drive a social learning network.
The "hot list" displays the 5 most viewed and highest rated videos.
The hot list allows videos to go viral! The top videos are the first thing that users see when they log in. This feature drives participation.
iBridgeConnect fosters collaboration between students, teachers, and administrators, in a completely safe and secure environment. This revolutionary system creates a social learning network allowing participation by all members of a school and/or district. This environment allows students to share their multimedia (videos, graphics, and audio files) with other students, empowering them to become the teacher, as they explain key curriculum concepts and ideas through their uploaded work. On this same note, teachers are able to upload and share their daily lesson plans, presentations, and lectures with students, as well as other educators, within their school or district. Teachers and administrators can also create "Group Pages" to create an environment where users can access additional resoureces specific to that subject or curriculum. Group Pages also provide a place for virtual discussions related to the subject matter through the use of iBridgeConnect's bulletin boards. The end result is an amazing, customized, interactive social learing resource, created by and for students, teachers, and administrators.
