What Goes Where? Bethlehem electronic workflow...
There are so many different communication systems talked about at school that sometimes its confusing about what does what and what needs to go where!
Hopefully this may help....
There are currently four main online information systems used at school:
- Sentral
- School Portal
- Google Drive
- Teacher Dashboard
Sentral
Sentral is Bethlehem's main administration communication software. It allows rolls to be taken, reports to be written, markbooks to be completed, daily notices to be communicated, etc.
School Portal
The school portal is available to staff and students. It is the main school location for learning resources. Staff should be locating resources for students, as with 'My Classes'. The resources can be of any file type (Office files, iWorks files, images, videos, audio, YouTube links, webpage links), they do not have to be Google Docs.
Every subject has its own page and every class has its own page. You have been given editing writes to your department pages, so go ahead and start uploading your teaching content. Make your classroom resources available to students
24-7, by placing them onto your subjects class webpage.
The web address for staff is: www.tinyurl.com/bcstaff
The web address for students is: www.tinyurl.com/bcstudents

Google Drive
Google Drive is an online storage location similar to iCloud or Dropbox. It allows you to store all your documents, of any file type (Office files, iWorks files, images, videos, audio, etc), so that they are available to you wherever you are.
It also allows you to create Google CloudShare documents online (Documents, presentations, spreadsheets, etc) and share them with other people.
Teacher Dashboard
Teacher Dashboard offers the ability to quickly share any document within your Google Drive, of any file type, with students within your class. You can also do this using Google Drive, but its A LOT quicker using Teacher Dashboard.
At the beginning of the school year every pupil had subject folders automatically made on their Google Drive account. Teacher Dashboard allows you to view all your classes Google Drive subject folders. Any document that you share with a pupil via Teacher Dashboard is automatically placed in the appropriate subject folder on their Google Drive. You can then see these all on one screen thats easier to use that searching through your Drive account.

Good On You English!
Below is an example of how English have begun to populate their Year 7 portal webpages.
The resources have been added to the website as attachments, pupils can download them when they are required. These resources were not converted into Google Docs prior to upload.
These resources are now available to students 24-7.
