2 Goal of this Presentation Make it easier for you to succeed with EFK Highlight common challenges faced by schools and organizations implementing e-learning for Kids (EFK) Convey best practices Point to resources which can help you further including the detailed EFK Implementation Guide available at 2

3 Background on e-learning for Kids

4 Background on e-learning for Kids e-learning for Kids (EFK) is a global, non-profit foundation Goal is to provide children with free, high quality digital learning lessons Lessons are for children aged 5-12 Since 2005, 15 million children have used EFK lessons EFK collaborates with schools, foundations, governments, and NGOs to implement digital learning 4

5 Background on e-learning for Kids U.S. Dept. of Education studies: e-learning is highly effective Access free lessons and learn more at our site Subjects covered: Math, Science, Language Arts, Health, Environmental Skills, Computer Skills and Life Skills 5

6 EFK lessons are easy to use, online and free But there can be implementation challenges Common Challenges Setting up a learning lab Engaging stakeholders Few people with technology skills Keeping PCs safe / secure Section of this Guide Planning for Implementation Setting up Computing Environment Need guidance on lesson planning Lack of fast / reliable Internet Environment tough on technology Need help tracking benefits of EFK Using EFK in the Classroom Recurring Activities 6

7 Planning for Implementation

8 Planning for Implementation! Implementation Challenge The learning software is easy to get, but it can be difficult to put together the other things needed: computers, equipment, and a place to learn 8

9 Planning for Implementation Minimum requirements for a learning lab Create a safe, reliable and comfortable place for students to learn by setting up required infrastructure and technology Weatherproof structure Air conditioning or ventilation Reliable electricity Furniture and lighting Modern personal computers (For online use) Local area network (For online use) Internet connection 9

10 Planning for Implementation! Implementation Challenge Some school administrators can be resistant to change. If you don t have them as partners, the effort won t succeed 10

11 Planning for Implementation Engaging stakeholders in learning Working with administrators Working with teachers Working with parents Carefully explain benefits of EFK Be mindful of local context and curriculum If working in schools, an engaged school administrator is essential Ideal teacher: motivated, focused on student success, open to technology Introduce EFK with the Guided Tour and Effective Use of EFK web-lessons Let teachers explore / decide how to use Kids enthusiasm for learning is the biggest factor in parents embracing EFK 11

12 Setting up the Computing Environment

13 Setting up the Computing Environment! Implementation Challenge Our computers broke down and our people weren t prepared to support technology. 13

14 Setting up the Computing Environment Plan ahead for computer problems Technical Support Identify a hardware and software tech support contact per location Communicate the issue-reporting process Provide IT training materials to support staff Computer Setup Setup new, refurbished, or donated PCs that meet EFK technical requirements Show teachers how to use them (Optional) Install networking equipment and verify the Internet connection is working (Optional) Setup a file and printer sharing server 14

15 Setting up the Computing Environment! Implementation Challenge Kids with computers will constantly change settings, do things they shouldn t, and download viruses 15

16 Setting up the Computing Environment Make it safe and secure Follow security best practices to protect the learning lab computers from hackers and malware. Enable automatic operating system updates Update all third-party applications Install anti-virus and security software such as Microsoft EMET Login with normal user (nonadministrator) accounts 16

17 Using EFK in the Classroom

18 Using EFK in the Classroom! Implementation Challenge What is the best way to include EFK courses in my lesson planning? 18

19 Using EFK in the Classroom Integrate EFK with classroom lessons Teachers can map curriculum lesson plans to the skills taught in specific e-learning lessons E-Learning lessons can be:* - Classroom activity - Homework - Extra credit - After-school activity - Challenge work for students who are ahead - Catch-up work for students who need more help * See the EFK Implementation Guide or Effective Use of EFK for more use cases 19

20 Using EFK in the Classroom! Implementation Challenge Our schools don t have fast or reliable Internet access to use the e-learning for Kids web site. 20

21 Using EFK in the Classroom Choose how to access EFK courses Use EFK online if: Internet connection is reliable Internet speeds are fast Computers are up-to-date and run supported software Use EFK offline if: EFK is pre-loaded onto the computers Computers are older or run unsupported software Internet is slow / not available 21

22 Recurring Activities

23 Recurring Activities! Implementation Challenge Our computers were damaged by heat, humidity and pests. The local power supply was unstable. After a year, 90% of the PCs had failed 23

24 Recurring Activities Computer repairs and updates An IT professional should check all PCs deployed in your learning lab annually, or every 3-6 months in harsh environments. Clean hardware of dust and debris Inspect hardware for damage; replace faulty components Test local network equipment and Internet connection Test EFK learning software for correct operation Install missing software updates and video / audio drivers Update virus scanning software and run a full system scan 24

25 Recurring Activities! Implementation Challenge We aren t sure how to track the benefit to our students and teachers of digital learning 25

26 Recurring Activities Measuring progress A method for measuring progress could include the following steps: Before EFK After EFK Annually Reassess student progress Assess student mastery of subjects Survey students about EFK Ask teachers for improvement ideas Discuss with parents Prepare progress report Analyze progress Summarize feedback Recommend changes 26
