Device Information

The instructional focus at East Irondequoit is differentiation and a student-centered, collaborative learning environment.  The devices are used to help promote digitally rich teaching and learning in the classroom.  We use many web-based programs to enhance instruction and strengthen student learning outcomes.

Some of Our Widely Used Programs Include

  • Infinite Campus

    • Students are able to access to their schedules, attendance and grades. Parents can also receive login information to monitor their child’s progress.

  • Office365 – Microsoft Word, PowerPoint, Forms, Sway

    • Microsoft suite that allows students to access Word, PowerPoint and Excel. In addition to providing all the Microsoft programs, the Office365 suite allows students to collaborate and share documents with each other.  Students can create presentations and work on them simultaneously with peers.  Office365 also stores all individual student files in the cloud so students can access their documents at anytime and anyplace.

  • Outlook

    • Students in Grades 3-12 have email accounts used for instructional purposes.

  • OneNote

    • OneNote is a digital notebook that allows teachers to provide notes and resources to students. Students are able to create their own notes and store files. Teachers can send notes to students, and students can complete assignments that their teacher is able to see and grade.  OneNote is used in Grades 4-12.

  • Mastery Connect

    • Mastery Connect allows teachers to provide assessments and grades to students. This is a way for teachers and students to examine data to inform instructional practices and extended learning opportunities.  Students can log in in and check their progress on various standards and learning targets for each class.

Other Links That Teachers Use

Teachers also use a wide variety of programs in the classroom to formally and informally assess students and develop lessons according to individual student needs. Many of these programs are also used to provide study material and resources to students, as well as immediate feedback on student progress.  The district utilizes Classlink to provide instant access to all instructional web based resources that students use throughout the school year.
