Project Share Student Accounts

In September, 2012, I announced that ECISD staff had seen created Project SHARE accounts. I am now happy to point out that students grades 6-12 have been issued Project Share accounts as well, and that their new GoogleApps email accounts are connected to those Project Share accounts to faciltiate "Forgot Password?" requests.

HOW IS THE ECISD GOING TO USE PROJECT SHARE?
The current plan is to create accounts for all district staff, as well as students in grades 6-12. The District hopes to take advantage of OnTrack andTechnology Applications:TEKS courses available for use with students. More will be shared about this later.

In case you're not familiar with Project Share, here's a brief overview (or watch this video on YouTube):
Project Share is the portal through which teachers and students can communicate, collaborate, and access 21st century digital content. Project Share leverages several technology platforms to provide multiple levels of access and flexibility for educators and students across the state. Project Share is  a partnership between the Texas Education Agency (TEA), Epsilen, The New York Times Knowledge Network, PBS, and Apple Computer.  TEA is working with the 20  Regional Education Service Centers (ESCs) to implement Project Share.
