Odyssey is glitchy on the iPad. We try many strategies to make it successful. Ms. Leom discovered a new one this week, she puts students on her computer to get through that lesson. The computer is also wired to the internet, versus dependent on wi-fi. It isn't practical or possible for ALL fifty students to use the computer, but it can offer the opportunity to bi-pass a current glitch.
Then students appear to be able to return to the iPad and continue with the Odyssey learning. There is so much depth and individualized learning opportunities available through Odyssey. Ms. Leom and Mr. Greninger can continue to add and remove learning to support each student. Odyssey doesn't replace school, the classroom, or the teacher, but it does offer "more". The more is worth the glitches.
