ALEX was absolutely amazing to me! It would be incredibly helpful to teachers. I especially liked the section of lesson plans. You can choose the subject, grade, and other areas. It allows teachers to use quality lessons with out the time consumption of making them. Just from being in college I have learned how time consuming lesson plans can be.

I also liked the link to the course of study. In Alabama, there are certain standards that an educator must meet for every grade level. This places those standards right at the teachers' fingertips. There is also a section that gives web links to help the students and teachers. Overall, I can definitely see how ALEX can be very beneficial to educators.

Access learning is another web tool available in Alabama. Access allows more courses to be offered to more schools. It's similar to an online class, but more interactive. At many sites students get to join classes from across the country. It is a huge step in learning.
