In order for students to take advantage of all those great Web 2.0 tools online like Ning, Animoto, Glogster, and Google Docs, it is necessary for them to have an email address. In APS, we don't want to have the kids to have unsecure email addresses, so we use a secure system called SchoolMail by ePals. This email allows for the teacher to control and monitor all email activity taking place amongst their students. More importantly, if set properly, students cannot receive any communications from outside of SchoolMail (like from spammers, predators, etc.) The easiest way for your Instructional Technology Coach or Trainer to give your students email addresses is if you export your student list from Infinite Campus into an Excel Spreadsheet. I have provided the directions for how to do this, and upon successful exporting, you can email your lists to your coach or trainer.
