Meet ALEX

The Alabama Learning Exchange (Alex) is a helpful database full of information from teachers all over Alabama. This information consists of lessons plans of teachers from all subjects imaginable, and also every grade level from kindergarten throughout high school. Along with the lesson plans there are some examples of what to instruct. There is a place to log in and create your own lesson plans to add to the database. The website itself is very easy to navigate and self-explanatory.
The resources it has available for the teachers are just wonderful. There are links to websites with instructions for eligible grant money. Just thumbing threw the website I came across numerous things that sparked my attention. I found a super helpful "Tips and Tricks" link that basically went over everything we are going to go over in this class. It is so exciting to think about all this technology at our fingertips. I wonder how different my learning experience, as a child, would have been, had this kind of source been available to my teachers.
