Adding Students to a Professional Account in Arch from ALCA on Vimeo.

In an earlier article we touch on the first thing to do after you have joined the ALCA Community. The second, is to add your students to your Professional account so you can then enroll them into our Classes. Watch the video above to see how quickly you can move forward with your students. 

As far as student class enrollment, we need to make a distinction between educators who have a Professional account  and those who have a Organizational Membership through their district or university. The above video applies to Professional members only. In organizational memberships, the district or university administration work with ALCA to establish the student accounts. 

If you have an organizational account as an educator and your classes are not already included in your Arch Classes, please contact your administration to determine next steps for moving forward with your classes and students. If need be, please contact ALCA using the contact information below.

Your First Steps in Arch from ALCA on Vimeo.

Arch helps teachers personally organize work around their classes using the Classes tool, one of ten tools in Arch. The Calendar tool helps to organize and streamline access to the classes and their assignments. In these two Arch Tools, teachers (and their students) focus on and accomplish their day-to-day work.

Put another way, Arch Classes provide the Learning Management System (LMS) features in the Arch Data, Instructional, and Learning Management System (let’s just call it Arch).

The other Arch Tools facilitate day-to-day work in Classes. For example, teachers can:
Tool
Class Benefits
Comprehend
Analyze 3rd Party assessments for planning Class assignments to improve instruction and learning.
Standards
Align Standards elements (i.e., content, skills, DoK, learning targets, big ideas, essential questions) for planned Class assignments.
Concepts
Align and use Concept elements and web and file resources in planned Class assignments.
Plan Books
Create and use sharable media rich Planbooks, Units and Plans to assign in Classes complete with student coursework. 
Strategies
Document RTI, lesson frameworks, instructional and learning Strategies, and professional development-based skills in planned Class assignments
Assessments
Assess student learning from assigned coursework from Classes using rubrics, checklists, real-time checks, tests, and interim Assessments
Portfolios
Create and evaluate student Portfolio-based reflections on work samples embedded from completed coursework assigned in Classes
Forms
Embed Form links within assigned coursework to gather authentic artifacts for student peer reflections across Classes and districts
Files
Add ArchDocs and files to use in assigned plans, Class home pages, concepts, rubrics, test items, portfolios, forms, and other ArchDocs
