ALEX

ALEX stands for The Alabama Learning Exchange and is a useful tool for not only teachers, but for students, parents or anyone who is interested in learning about the methods of the Alabama Learning Exchange. ALEX was created by the Alabama Department of Education and covers a wide range of activities, lesson plans and links for all of the academic subjects taught in Alabama schools. The helpful information provided through ALEX gives teachers the recommended resources and techniques to use for teaching their students and developing them into academically successful learners. ALEX also defines what skills a student of each grade level should have.

ALEX includes web links for teachers, administrators and students that pertain to any questions or facts they want to know about the Alabama Education System, how it works, and what exactly it consists of. Teachers can use this as a helpful source and backup checklist to make sure they are along the right track in teaching their students the needed material for that particular grade level. I believe ALEX is a great tool for teachers and I will definitely use it to my advantage when I become a teacher.
