New enhancements are now available!
| By Gale Staff |
As your partner in education, we’re always working to improve our resources, optimizing them to meet the needs of schools, teachers, and students. That’s why we’re adding helpful enhancements to Gale In Context: For Educators that will make teaching and learning easier.
Assigning content that includes assessment activities keeps students engaged and helps teachers monitor comprehension of key concepts. With the addition of assessments in Gale In Context: For Educators lesson plans, teachers are empowered with insights about student learning and have an easier way to make evidence-based decisions on personalizing instruction to keep students on track.
For current customers, these updates will automatically appear in the product beginning January 27, 2023. The integration will be seamless and requires no action.
What’s New:
