Students do not log in or register with MyCareerTech. Rather, lessons come with links to online student tests and activities that are sent to students by their teacher through an LMS or email. When students access the link, they enter their information before taking the test or completing an activity. Upon completion, students are entered into the grade book for that lesson for the teacher to view.
Teachers do not register or upload students with MyCareerTech. Each lesson comes with a link to an online student test or activity. When students receive the link via email or LMS, they enter their information before taking the test. Upon completion of the test, students are entered into the grade book for that lesson for the teacher to view.
MyCareerTech does not limit the number of times a student can take a test. We recommend teachers specify to students how many times they are “allowed” to take a test. Lesson gradebooks record each test and activity completed, the score received, and the date and time it was completed.
The focus of MyCareerTech lessons are our videos. Each video includes closed captioning in English and Spanish. Other materials are currently only offered in English.
MyCareerTech does not currently offer LMS integration, but all or our content links can easily be shared or posted to any third party system.
MyCareerTech is intended to be used as a paperless, online learning platform. This allows us to be able to continue to provide relevant and up to date materials. However, some components of the lesson such as lesson plans and certificates of completion are printable documents.
Since each teacher’s account is tied to a school, we will have to assign you a new password for your new school. Please complete the Contact Us form on our site so we can help you with this request.
