Do students have a separate log-in on the new BH site?

Fizza Kachwala

Hello everyone,

I am starting BH at my new school. When I piloted it at my old school, It was the old website back in 2017. I am still navigating the new site and wanted to know if students have a separate log-in to access the materials in each unit. To fully utilize the differentiation in reading, the colourful infographics, etc I would prefer that students have online access vs me printing sheets for them.

Please help.

Thank you.

Fizza

    Welcome back to BHP, Fizza Kachwala ! Students no longer need a login to access articles, videos, etc. Only teacher-facing materials such as the lesson guides with sample answers and access to the online community require a login. I hope you enjoy getting reacquainted with the course Blush

    Thank you Anne Koschmider  I am really struggling with the new website, possibly only because I found the older version so easy to navigate and was used to it. 

    Where might one find sample answers on the new site?

      Fizza Kachwala  keep an eye out for the hammer icon - this has the lesson guides, which include sample answers. Also; if you decide you would rather use some of the BHP materials in their earlier form, you can reach out to help@oerproject.com to access archived “legacy materials”. I found that info in this blog post about 26/27 course updates: https://www.oerproject.com/blog/2026-27-oer-project-course-updates

     Fizza Kachwala the advice you got from Anne Koschmider is exactly what I was going to suggest. Like you, I've been spending some time exploring the new layout and materials while keeping the old version handy for guidance. I can honestly say that although you'll notice some differences, the new additions are well worth it.

    The "hammer" icon provides well-structured lesson plans that make it much easier to navigate the content. This year, I decided to incorporate several of the new activities, especially the new videos. They're much shorter (less than six minutes), which fits students' attention spans much better. OER has kept all the essential concepts, but instead of simply watching Dr. David Christian speak, students now see engaging visuals that help illustrate those ideas. My students have really enjoyed the videos, and I highly recommend taking some time to explore them.

    Here are some I chose for you: How were stars formed? How was the early Earth like? What is DNA?  and the graphic stories like Collective Learning
