En résumé
Teaching with Davidson Next explains the purpose and mission of Davidson Next: to help improve teaching and learning in AP courses with digital materials on edX.org. To help inspire you, we share real-life examples of ways that AP® teachers have leveraged Davidson Next and best practices for blended learning. Our Davidson Next modules are designed to support you as a form of co-teaching.
We know that as AP® teachers you are highly committed to your students and creating a great experience in your classroom. To that end, we want to help you effectively use the Davidson Next modules in your AP® classes. When you’re armed with AP®-aligned content and know ways to integrate it into what you are already doing, you can expand your options as a teacher and help your students learn and master concepts in new ways!
Join fellow AP® teachers from around the country in this course! You will have plenty of opportunities to collaborate and discuss with one another on ways to implement Davidson Next in your classes.

La plateforme
EdX est une plateforme d'apprentissage en ligne (dite FLOT ou MOOC). Elle héberge et met gratuitement à disposition des cours en ligne de niveau universitaire à travers le monde entier. Elle mène également des recherches sur l'apprentissage en ligne et la façon dont les utilisateurs utilisent celle-ci. Elle est à but non lucratif et la plateforme utilise un logiciel open source.
EdX a été fondée par le Massachusetts Institute of Technology et par l'université Harvard en mai 2012. En 2014, environ 50 écoles, associations et organisations internationales offrent ou projettent d'offrir des cours sur EdX. En juillet 2014, elle avait plus de 2,5 millions d'utilisateurs suivant plus de 200 cours en ligne.
Les deux universités américaines qui financent la plateforme ont investi 60 millions USD dans son développement. La plateforme France Université Numérique utilise la technologie openedX, supportée par Google.
