Using ALEC for Battle of the Books (BOB)
ALEC is a learning management system (powered by Moodle) and customized for employees
and students in Academy District 20. Access to ALEC is available from any device that is
connected to the Internet - http://alec.asd20.org/ Your username and password are the same
ones you use to login to a district computer.
How to access BOB on ALEC (you can use ALEC at home or school):
1. From the High Plains Website, click on the “Students,” tab and then, click on “logins.”
2. On the logins page, click on the ALEC link. It will say you are leaving the District 20 website.
Click OK.
3. Click “Login” in the upper right hand corner and login using your district username (6 digit
student number) and password (first and last initial, birthdate).

words, and it will take you right to the course.
Check under “Welcome to High Plains Battle of the Books” for the latest updates and
important information, like calendars and schedules of upcoming BOB events.

There are many handy tools here. There is also a link to Ms. Smith’s email, which is
where you will attach and send your story outline drafts

to take it and retake until your score meets the requirements of 85% or better.

If you have an older brother/sister in D20, he or she can probably show you how to use ALEC, as they have probably
taken ALEC courses before. If all else fails, no worries. Find Mrs. Edgar or Ms. Smith and we can show
you how to access and use ALEC!
