ALEX

Alabama Learning Exchange Logo

The Alabama Learning Exchange, also known as ALEX, is a virtual tool for both teachers and students. Created by the Alabama Department of Education, it provides informative resources that makes learning a particular subject easier to comprehend. Teachers are able to share lesson plans with each other, while students get extra help by clicking on any of the links.

In my opinion, Alabama school systems have developed a brilliant system for success inside and outside of the classroom. In order to create successful lessons, collaboration is one of the key elements for teachers. The ability to exchange information is starting to take the education world by storm. Networking is becoming more popular as society becomes more reliant on technology. For students, ALEX provides legitimate alternatives from the usual Wikipedia and Google sources. Also, this resource allows for more practice in a struggling topic, through online links.
