MentorMob playlists are displayed in a step-by-step format that allow users to interact with live web content right on the page, keeping students on track without getting lost in a stream of open tabs and new pages. As students progress through a playlist at their own pace, MentorMob keeps track of completed steps. Flexibility to move within a playlist is provided by a preview that's always accessible on the side of the screen, allowing users to jump to different steps as needed for reteaching and challenge.
The newly added LearnZillion Common Core aligned lessons focus on the use of narrated video for instruction. The pause button allows students to tackle the learning at their own pace, while built in learning supports make this an instructional tool that addresses a variety of learning needs. A Coach's Commentary on the side of each playlists provides teachers with additional information and support. Most of the math lessons provide guided practice opportunities and some of these playlists are also available in spanish.
Here are a few playlists to test drive.

This is a perfect example of beginning to break down the artificial wall that's been put up between formal and informal learning--Common Core aligned work that students can complete outside of class for free!
ReplyI love seeing the artificial wall that's been built between formal and informal learning beginning to come down. Now kids can learn from a Common Core aligned lesson on their own, outside of class, for free!
