ALEX, which stands for Alabama Learning Exchange, is a website designed to help teachers with developing lesson plans by giving exmples and different ideas to implement ways to help students master each course objectives. This site is broken down into the many course subjects taught from K-12 grades. Teachers can sign up for their individual work place to develop and keep lesson plans or teachers can view lesson plans that have been posted by other teachers from many different schools around the world.
Once you are on the ALEX website, click on the specific subject you may need extra ideas from. Then, select the proper grade level. Once you're on that grade level, it gives the many objectives that are used for that course. You can choose to view various lesson plans or take a look at the different website links that are recommended to help students learn those course objectives.
ALEX is a useful website, especially for beginning teachers. It is useful because not only does it give explicit examples on how to develop lesson plans, but it also gives other various website links that can be used in the classroom. It contains information to help suppport teachers by giving opportunities for professional developmet and information on the most updated educational news.
I feel this site is a good resource tool that I will be using once I start teaching. I even recognized some of the website links that the students use at my elementary school. And when it comes to lesson plans and ideas to help students learn the objectives for that day, I can use ALEX as a back up reinforcement tool to keep me on the right track.
