OVERVIEW
When we teach Young Learners, we want to take advantage of all the tools and resources we can get our hands on – great curriculum, well-developed activities, engaging visuals, and so on. Another element that can also propel student learning is the use of a Learning Management System (LMS). An LMS can aid teachers in building student motivation, developing good learning habits, aiding memory and retention, and also in gaining another committed partner – the learners’ parents – to help the students succeed in their learning. In this session, we will explore these ideas in more detail and discuss practical ways that you can use an LMS system like that found in National Geographic Learning’s young learner programs – Our World 2nd edition and Look – to great effect.
