Can students use CFL Digital?

Just as with traditional lessons plans, CFL digital lessons are a tool for teachers to use in presenting content to their students in an engaging way. Students will not use CFL Digital directly; however, the lessons provide teachers with interactives and worksheets that students use.

Can I integrate my materials into the product?

CFL digital lessons are designed to be flexible and adaptable. You can use whatever elements work best in your classroom and integrate your own ideas and materials into your presentation of the lesson. Each CFL digital lesson has its own forum with ongoing discussion and collaboration on how best to use the lesson content in different settings. You can ask questions and share with other teachers the ways you are adapting and using materials with your classes.

Do CFL Digital lessons require special software or operate in a learning management system?

CFL digital lessons are stand-alone, Web-based lesson plans, designed to provide you with the flexibility to work anywhere. The platform-independent lessons do not require any specialized software or work in a learning management system.
