SOIN Tip:  How to Access Last Year’s Lessons

academics on soin image
Collaboration and Assessment are important key words in education today.  Schools-On-I-Net’s Lesson Plan module facilitates collaboration and assessment in a green (paperless), easy and effective way.
  • Lesson Plans allow teachers to submit their plans online to principals who collaborate on lessons, offer advice and get a cross – curricular bird’s eye view on how all teachers are progressing in classes.
  • Teachers gain guidance from administration and have an online record of lessons with the ability to keep comments on successful and less effective lessons.
  • Teachers can access last year’s lessons on SOIN so they can self – assess their curriculum and see how they are doing from year to year.

Here’s how:

  1. Teachers login
  2. Click Academics
  3. Click My Lesson Plan
  4. Click Weekly View – Current and Previous year
  5. Select academic year
  6. Select class
  7. Select week
  8. Voila! You can copy and past the last year’s plan or print it to PDF

My Classes moved out to left hand side.
My Classes allows teachers to manage their own class lists and to create new ‘classes’ that can be used with the academics and communications modules.

Celebrating our 10th Anniversary


Schools-On-I-Net Logo: Globe, Book and PencilRK Solutions, LLC celebrates its 10th year in business this summer.

RK Solutions, LLC was formed in 1999 by Rekha Karnik as a product development company.  It was Ms. Karnik’s foresight to move from an IT consulting firm, Vision Technology Group, Inc., to a product and services company before the burst of the “IT bubble.” RK Solutions, LLC developed various online tools for clients in the US.  The prime endeavor, Schools-On-I-Net, was adopted by Ms. Karnik and daughter, Miss Sunita Pradhan.

“We are very proud of everything we have accomplished over the last ten years. I wanted to honor my mom, a school teacher in Mumbai; I wanted to help parents like me who needed a tool to keep involved with schoolwork and events; I wanted to make education even more about the children by streamlining traditional processes.

We are very fortunate to have met people who believed in our product and services and who continue to support us.

Best of all, Sunita and I, and our core development team have been working together since SOIN’s inception.  That’s what I call commitment.

Thank you to everyone who has supported us!”

- Ms. Karnik.


Schools-On-I-Net.com (SOIN for short) has evolved from a “parent portal” to a comprehensive online school management system, now integrated with Google Apps for Education.
