  1. Here's a couple of things I came across while researching classes. I have no experience with either of them but thought they might be worth looking Into.

     

    You might find something that meets your needs at Outschool.com

    Here's another site I came across that definitely offers a self paced course.

  2. Mirabillis,

    Gr8lander,

    Thank you for sharing your experience with Teaching Textbooks and how well it prepared your students!

     

     

     

     

    Derek,

    Thank you for sharing your experiences with WHA and DO.  It is helpful to have more insight into both those options!

    I appreciate hearing your thoughts on the value of live classes. But the reality that they can provide scheduling challenges.

     

     

     

     

    Gratia271,

    You made some valuable points about the importance of finding what fits for each individual student.  It has always been my first priority to 

    find what meets the learning style of each of my students.  Thank you for sharing what has worked and not worked for your students!

  3. We live in an area that gets very hot, however it is almost always a dry heat. We set our air conditioner to come on at 76 degrees and then it shuts completely off at 11pm. We have the heater set at 66 degrees in the winter and it too shuts off at 11pm. We do not run the air or heat at night.

     

    We have already had to run the air a few times in the last couple of weeks. I love the temps between 66 & 76 when we do not have to run the air or heat!

  4. Thanks Everyone for taking the time to share what you have used and your experience with each Algebra 2 course.

    I so appreciate having your personal insight, it really helps me have a clearer view of each choice!!

     

    For those who have used a live online course or a recorded one that included submitting work for grading, I have a few questions.

     

    Was the instructor seen on the screen or was it just him/her writing on a white board?

    Were students permitted to ask questions in class?

    Was finished homework gone over during class?

    Was homework submitted and graded? If so what was the turn around time?

     

    How were tests & quiz handled?

    What was the typical turn around time for test/quizzes to be turned in & grades/ feedback given?

     

    Was the class somewhat relaxed or more formal?

    Did the instructor tend to stay on topic or often get side tracked with non related topics?

     

    I would appreciate any other information you think might be helpful for us to understand the working of that class.

     

    Thank you!!

  5. After reading through all the Algebra 2 options, in the list on this forum, I find myself wanting some more personal feedback.

    If you have used Algebra 2 could you please share what you used and your overall experience?

    We are interested in hearing about all options including live online courses.

     

    Thanks.
