ACCESS

ALEX is not the only resource available to teachers and students, there is also a learning program called ACCESS. The Alabama Connecting Classrooms, Educators, and Students Statewide is a distance learning plan that provide advance placement courses to high school students that are not available in local schools. ACCESS prepare these students for a college setting.

ACCESS can be very beneficial for students. It provide highly qualified educators and allows students to work at their own pace; even retake lessons as much as they like. It allows both the teacher and student to engage in cross culture experiences. I think ACCESS is the education of the future.

ALEX

The Alabama Learning Exchange is an online resource available to teachers, administrators, and students in Alabama. This online program provides courses of study, web links, lesson plan, personal workspace and other resources.
When I’m in the classroom I will definitely use this site and make sure that my students and parents know that there are resources beyond the classroom.

About Me

My name is Larrica Smith. I am named after my father whose name is Larry. My parents have six children and I am the baby girl. In 2002, I graduated from Baldwin County High School. About a year later I married my high school sweetheart. Around the spring of 07 I realized the importance of education and financial stability. I enrolled at Faulkner State Community College and haven’t looked back. This is my first semester at the University of South Alabama. I am a sophomore majoring in Elementary Education. I spend most of my time studying but when I not hitting the books I like to have a good time. My hobbies are shopping, four wheeler riding, horseback riding, and entertaining family and friends. I wish everyone good luck in EDM 310 and a smooth sailing semester.
