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
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 high school
counselor to see what’s available.
