DISTANCE EDUCATION: IS A VIRTUAL CLASSROOM FOR YOU?

PART 1

YOU MAY WANT TO TAKE A CLASS THAT YOUR HIGH SCHOOL DOESN’T OFFER. UNDER SOME CIRCUMSTANCES, YOU CAN STILL ENROLL IN THE CLASS-THROUGH DISTANCE LEARNING.

DISTANCE EDUCATION MEANS TAKING A CLASS WITHOUT BEING PHYSICALLY PRESENT WHERE IT IS BEING TAUGHT. INTERNET-BASED TECHNOLOGY LETS STUDENTS PARTICIPATE IN LECTURES AND CLASS SESSIONS ONLINE FROM ALMOST ANYWHERE.

SOME HIGH SCHOOLS AGREE TO RECOGNIZE DISTANCE-LEARNING CREDITS WHEN THEY DON’T HAVE THE RESOURCES TO OFFER A COURSE THEMSELVES. DISTANCE EDUCATION IS OFTEN USED TO INCREASE OPTIONS IN RURAL AREAS AND FOR AP COURSES.

FOR YOU, IT MIGHT MEAN DOING SELF-TUTORIAL AT HOME IN THE EVENING, OR PARTICIPATING IN A CLASS THAT IS 1,000 MILES AWAY, ALONG WITH OTHER HIGH SCHOOL STUDENTS.CHECK WITH YOUR SCHOOL COUNSELOR TO SEE WHAT’S AVAILABLE.
