ALEX as it's known is a web site devoted to the indexing and sharing of information and educational materials. On the main page you will find links to a Podcast Treasury, Web Links, Courses of Study and more. By clicking on the Courses to Study you are at a page with many different subjects on it, and by clicking on a subject you can see different grade levels you can chose from. I chose fourth grade and then clicked on web links and then student links which gives you different choices of study.
Now once you pick a subject you have many links to choose from including math which shows many fun games to play with numbers to arts education where you can hear Carnegie Hall Listening Adventures to a website for kids which includes a digital tool to let children make their own movies and plays. So for a teacher, administrator or student, ALEX is a very useful tool to help yourself and your students learn.
As for using ALEX when I become a teacher, why not, I have seen quite a few sites since I started this class and all of them seem to be very useful. ALEX is another great tool for me to assign items to my students use. To visit ALEXclick here.
