Online Textbooks & Instructional Programs

The DeSoto County School District provides parents and students easy access to their online textbooks when the students are entered in to PowerSchool (the student information system).  For questions regarding the textbooks, the parent or student should always contact his/her teacher for more detailed information.

DCSD utilizes the Clever Single sign-on platform to provide students with an easy way to access all their digital content with one login regardless of his/her location.

DCSD provides teachers and students with a MyVRSpot Digital Story Creation and Video Editing account.  MyVRSpot is a powerful digital tool and allows users access to over 4 million clips of footage and images and more than 8 thousand audio clips for use in the classroom and/or student projects.  Students can share his/her projects with their teachers directly in a private classroom group and safely showcase or present those videos and MediaSpot projects with their peers, friends or family.   There is no additional software to "download" and all work is editing online within the district MyVRSpot platform.

In addition to student accounts, teachers can upload youtube videos for use in the classroom while being assured that the commercials and questionable content will be removed while viewing. 

DCSD is proud to offer our students and teachers the Learn360 experience.  Learn360 is the ultimate streaming multimedia resource for the K–12 educational market. Teachers, students, and parents can access more than 164,000 media resources on any Internet-enabled device, anytime, anywhere, and engaging content landing pages make it easy to find the wealth of videos, interactives, printables, audio content, and maps and flags. The entire site and all landing pages can be filtered by grade level (all grades, elementary, or middle/high) for targeted browsing. (Provided via Learn360/Infobase)
