Distance Teachers Chatboard

A fantastic tool, I believe it will be interesting and valuable to many people. I'd want to attend more of these events, but there isn't always time. I recently prepared for a challenging and responsible duty for myself https://www.phdresearchproposal.org/ And phd research proposal writing service assisted me with this. Because doing it myself was ...See More

Best cloudbased school-college-university management softwar

by GeniusEdusoft

May 24, 2020

More information needs to be managed by the schools, college, university today than ever before. Without a strong internal data-sharing system for teachers, administrators, and staff, essential school and student information can be lost, or worse-communicated poorly-contributing to a host of issues that can impact the reputation and resilience of t...See More

Pros and cons?

by Karen

Feb 18, 2018

Hi! I'm thinking of moving from classroom to online teaching. I'm tired of trying to manage rooms full of middle schoolers who really want to chat and/or be on their phones. I still love helping the light bulbs go on, but I'm worn out by the management piece. Any advice? Pros and cons of online teaching?

The items in this group are pretty old. so I wanted to get an update on Connections Academy. I was looking into distance learning in Georgia. I'm been teaching for six years and I love every minute of it. Every year I'm being pressured to move out of my classroom. My Principal wants me to prepare for an administrative career path that I do not want...See More

Connections Academy

by MrsTeacher

Oct 5, 2015

c.a. not so good Connections Academy has a non-compete clause which means if you leave (quit, non-renewed, laid-off, whatever), you can't teach anywhere for 12 months...

Pay varies by your state, but expect it to be less than the public schools. They are a for-profit business, so they're interested in paying as little as possible.

K12 Online School question

by Georgia teacher

May 9, 2012

Anyone here teach for K12 Online Public Schools?

I've read the salaries tend to be $40-50K. Is that accurate?

Can years taught with them go into one's teacher retirement system in their state?

Thanks!!

I know that this is a profoundly late response, but I work for K12 in Arizona and, while I can't reveal my full-time salary, I can tell you that I make Above 30,000 and below 35,000 a year as my base salary.

With that being said, I also get money from Prop 301 (pay-for-performance) which adds up to about 10&37; of my total salary twice...See More

I'm feeling like I'm not worth very much.

I don't want to put any information here, but I sure could use a couple of cyber hugs.

Neato, I get to be the first to post!

Has anyone taught a course where you did not get to design
the course-- your responsibilitie were just to e-mail and
communicate with students, type commentary on their written
work, and grade? What was the experience like?

I'm thinking I won't mind it sin...See More

It's not independent study-- it's a regularly 8-week college writing
course where everyone starts at the same time, has the same
deadlines, etc.

I figure I'll try it. Since I have a different full-time job to be
creative in, it might be nice to have a pre-designed course anyway,
particularly considering...See More

Pre-written courses are nice because you don't have to do anything
but teach. The flip side is that if there's an assignment you think
could be done more effectively in a different way, you can't change
it.

What kind of turnaround do they expect with grading? Some schools
give only two days, others...See More

This is a new initiative for the state, in case you are
looking for ideas.

The only elementary school programs I've heard about are for
home schooled students.

Rosylinn I know this is an old post, but Connections Academy hires teachers in several different states to teach online elementary and secondary.
