GED 2002 - Information for Administrators
http://www.floridatechnet.org/ged/
********************************************************************
Friends:
Do you work with Adult Literacy (ABE, ASE, GED, ESL) students?
Are you an administrator (director, coordinator, etc.) of an Adult Literacy
program?
If so, PLEASE REVIEW the Florida GED 2002 Web-based Training
http://www.floridatechnet.org/ged/ for Administrators NOW.
It's got GREAT INFORMATION, and even helps you develop a "To Do" list to
prepare for the transition to GED 2002. For instance . . .
* Have you ordered - or downloaded - your GED 2002 posters?
* Do you know what happens if a student has passed four of the old GED tests
and is only 2 points shy of passing the fifth - and it's January 1, 2002?
* Do your teachers know about the new scoring rubric for the writing
section?
* Are there copies of the U. S. Constitution, the Declaration of
Independence, the Federalist Papers, and landmark Supreme Court cases
available to all your ASE or GED classes?
* Do your teachers know how to incorporate these documents into their
lessons?
* Did your teachers know that photographs may included in the Social Studies
section?
* Have you ordered the Casio fx-260 solar calculators for all of your
teachers?
* Are you going to order overhead calculators for teachers to use in their
classes? ($35)
* How will students get access to the Casio fx-260 solar calculators? (Will
there be class sets? Will you have them for sale at cost? Will you find
out where in town they can buy these?)
* Do teachers know how to use these calculators? Do they know how to TEACH
using these calculators?
* Do your teachers know they will need to use authentic business texts such
as memos, letters, reports as they work with students?
* How about political cartoons?
* Can your teachers - can you? - think of other practical documents to use
in the GED 2002 class?
* Are your teachers familiar with the new types of grids that will be used
the new math GED 2002 test?
and so on . . .
Visit this site. Work through the lessons. Get the information that your
teachers and students need to know NOW!
