Experience 6 - Thursday April 3rd, 2014

Maritime Academy of Toledo emphasizes discipline yet some teachers are laid back. Some teachers are laid back to the point that they will allow students to listen to iPods or other MP3 devices while working on their Study Island. Study Island is a resource tool for students to catch up in other classes via online education. Study Island incorporates education, games and grading to make sure the students are well-rounded for that class subject. Study Island is not a class itself but is what students work on during their study period. Study Island may not work for everyone but it seems to be the best way to allow teachers to have extra planning time in their busy schedule.
