Introduction to Modern Classroom Project

Mr. Davis introduces a modern classroom approach using technology to enhance learning. The course is self-paced, allowing students to learn at their own speed with digital access. Lessons are structured with short videos, guided notes, and quizzes to ensure mastery. Required lessons include lock challenges and digital products, while extended lessons offer extra credit. Grading focuses on guided notes, mastery checks, and unit tests. Students are encouraged to check the webpage for next steps and complete the mastery check for the first lesson.
