What is Information Station?
Information Station is an internet based service offered by McGraw-Hill to teachers and administrators in school districts nationwide. It was designed to help teachers and administrators track the progress of their Direct Instruction students and classes. In the past, teachers have had to rely on paper records for scoring and recording grades for the Direct Instruction curriculum. Information Station was created to remove this burden.
What was your involvement in the teacher’s guide?
Although most of the content is my own, some of it already existed. I was solely responsible for all the instructional content. Also, I was responsible for everything from creating the document, choosing the fonts and styles, taking the screen shots, choosing the graphics, and creating the PDF. All instructions were designed for both the Windows and Mac OS X environment.
