To clarify, the Lower School faculty will complete TECHsplorations within a class on Edmodo, and the Middle and Upper School faculty will complete TECHsplorations within a class on Canvas. Using these learning management systems to explore new facets and features will help to prepare us to use these systems effectively with our own students in the fall.
