1. Mastery Charts and Status Reports
Mastery charts were messaged to the students within Blackboard and emailed to parents and DLAs by 5pm on Monday,November 16th. The Status Reports will be available in the registration system (REPORTS section) on Tuesday, November 17th. Mastery Charts and Status Reports will be provided bi-weekly during the fall semester for all Credit Recovery students. If you are new to this program and this is your first time receiving Mastery charts, you may wish to view this presentation detailing how students are assessed in Credit Recovery and how to "read" Mastery charts and status reports. http://content.flypaper.net/0a56d50a-f6dd-45c1-9032-633cecea4985/preview.aspx For the Mastery Chart schedule, click the following link: http://www.scribd.com/doc/18170808/Mastery-Chart-Schedule
2. Credit Recovery Podcast Series
We are excited to announce the new Credit Recovery Podcast Series. This series of interviews with Central Office DLAs, School DLAs, and Lab Facilitators will focus on strategies used to implement Credit Recovery in the schools across the state. Please be sure to check out our first podcast, "Motivating the Credit Recovery Student", where the DLA from Shelby High School details the motivational strategies used to motivate and encourage success for the Credit Recovery students enrolled in NCVPS. The podcast can be found in several locations including the DLA Spa under the Credit Recovery tab and on The Virtual Learning Consultant website at http://www.thevlc.org/2009/11/credit-recovery-podcast-motivational.html. The series will also be available on the main NCVPS website soon. Our hope is that you will find the information shared through these interviews valuable to your program at your school.
3. Students unable to move forward in course
If you have a Credit Recovery student that states he or she is unable to move forward in a course for any reason, please contact Jeff Page at jnpage@dpi.state.nc.us. Jeff can help the DLA and/or lab facilitator to determine where or what the student can do next. Students should never be sitting with nothing to work on at any time!
4. Last Day To Submit Work
The end of the semester is quickly approaching. The last day for students to submit work in Credit Recovery courses is Thursday, January 14th. Please remind students they can work in their course over the winter break if they have computer access at home.
