Teacher Help
In order to take full advantage of the resources, tools, and features of the Generation
YES Web site, teachers should be able to answer "YES" to the following questions. These
questions refer to tasks and site features unique, in most cases, to the Gen YES teacher.
In addition, a Gen YES teacher should have a thorough understanding of how the site
works from the perspective of a Gen YES student. The student help files are available here.
The answers to the questions are in PDF format. You must have
Acrobat Reader installed on your computer to view the files.
