Two Tips for Homeschooling Management

As a homeschool parent, you will become a pro in management. What kind of management? Two kinds--time management and learning management.

Time management will become second nature to you as a homeschooler. Although learning management systems and other online learning materials are relatively mess-free, you'll be doing all kinds of projects (including art and science) that will inevitably cause clutter. And lesson-planning and clutter-cleaning are on top of the regular house chores.

Coggno is now offering a free trial for home educators on its learning management system. Create online courses for home use, or for syndication.

Learning management can be greatly aided with a learning management system and other online tools. Home educators have a great deal of work to do, and a learning management system can help with things like grading, record-keeping, and lesson planning. With a learning management system like Coggno, you can also create quizzes, tests and videos.

A world of tools is available to homeschool students, including LMSs offered by Christian academies and other institutions to suit the religious beliefs of the families who use them. Homeschooling should never be a solitary enterprise. Take advantage of the support and educational tools available online and in your community.
