Introduction:

Michigan Virtual has recently enrolled several learners in the Essential Early Literacy courses available within the Professional Learning Portal (PLP), as requested.

  3. As a result, one or more Essential Early Literacy courses will appear in the "Active Courses" module.
    The Essential Instructional Practices in Early Literacy: K-3 Essential 1 course appears as a tile within the Active Courses module on the user dashboard. An arrow points to this tile.
  4. At this point, tap the appropriate linked course name to open the content in a new window. Then begin the course by selecting Get Started.
    The Get Started page is shown with directions and welcome information. Arrows point to the "Getting Started" option on the top of the page.

Additional Information:

Learners who are registered for more than one course can toggle between courses using the waffle icon at the top of the page.
An image of the course selector (waffle grid shaped icon) is shown with an arrow pointing to it on the Course Navigation Page. Another arrow points to the course options available.

For learners who would like to reference the material from completed sections of Essential Early Literacy Courses, or those that help facilitate the courses for their districts may enroll in Early Literacy Resources. Doing so will make the content of any completed section available for a year. If you are currently enrolled in an Essential Early Literacy Course you can go to the conclusion portion of your course and use the link provided to self enroll in the resources course. If you are not currently enrolled in any Essentials courses please reach out to customer care to be enrolled.
The Continue Your Learning with the Early Literacy Resources Course section is shown with an arrow pointing to "Click here for the Early Literacy Resources Course" link.
