Congratulations, Jon Schmitz!
✨Otus Educator of the Month✨

🏆 Words from the Winner 🏆

"Otus helps my students because it is like a "one-stop shop". We use it every day for posting our Daily Lesson Plan on the Class Board. Students (and parents) can easily see what we are learning about on any particular day. I've also advanced in how I'm using Otus during any given unit. I'm placing multiple formative assessments throughout each unit for students to practice skills along the way. Finally, we house our summative assessments on Otus at the end of each unit." - Jon Schmitz

Jon Schmitz's forward-thinking approach to education exemplifies why he is so deserving of this month's Educator Spotlight. Way to go, Jon! 👏

Congratulations, Jennifer Wagner!✨Otus Educator of the Month✨

🏆 Words from the Winner 🏆

"One way I use Otus that really helps me and my students is by creating consistency in my assignments. When everything is organized the same way, students know what to expect and can focus more on the content instead of figuring out the format. It also makes things easier on my end. I can quickly compare data across assignments to see what’s working, who needs support, and where to go next with instruction. It helps keep things clear, intentional, and all in one place." - Jennifer Wagner

Jennifer achieved an impressive milestone by completing FOUR OCE Summer Session Cohorts. This is the highest number ever completed! Way to go, Jennifer! Keep shining bright ✨
