Delivery Methods and Vendors

Gwinnett County has many options available for teachers to develop and create online learning communities:

•  The main LMS is desire2learn. Most school that are going digital are being directed to use the D2L format.
• Some schools are Google schools which is offered completely free for any user. By saving money on licensing software, schools can focus on using their technology funds on hardware or additional software.
• Edmodo is a great CMS that allows educators to work together regardless of the system in which they teach. Edmodo is available to schools with licensing agreements with the county.
• SMARTtech has a CMS, but in order to use it effectively, you must purchase the hardware of the SMARTboard for each classroom.
• USATestPrep and Study Island gives teachers a way to access pre-made questions and activities for different subject. This requires individual schools to buy individual courses, though.
