        I am a Para-Educator, so I do not get to choose what site or subject to study daily. I have looked up information on line for the teacher.
       I personally like Online 360 learning, I find it helps grade school Students with special needs and others. They can take online courses at their own pace, than a traditionally-paced classroom. It is best to use this study at least 2 hrs. a week, web based information to enhance their learning skills.
        It enhances independent learning, builds their confidence, motives the students in their thinking skills and problem solving.
        Most computers already have scholastic  booked marked and then you go to 360 learning. Choose age level, and then choose whether you are working on math, language, or reading this week. It keeps score for you, most of it is competition with yourself. You play the skilled games at least 3 times to try to beat your score, which helps the student improve themselves in the subject they are working on, whether it is math, reading, science, history and language etc. The students find it very entertaining in many ways. They read articles about what is happening in the world, play educational games, build their self esteem, share with other students on how well they did or what they just read about.
        Teachers do have in class audio books for students. In the books there are levels and percentages that are recorded for each student.
        I am quite amazed in all the learning technology students have for learning anything in the world at their fingertips.
       Let's say we are studying in a group in the classroom about bullying, harassment, internet bullying etc..
