Help me make a list of curriculum with dvd instruction.


Recommended Posts

I want to browse through middle and high school curriculum that utilizes lecture style instruction on dvd like Math U See.

 

We don't find the type of instruction that uses a blackboard and voice over that effective (eg. khan academy, dive science).

 

I don't know of that many but so far I have thought of ....

 

Essentials in Writing

Saxon Math with Art Reed

BJU 

Abeka  

 

Any others?

Thinkwell has a number of different ones. My kids used their Pre Calc, Calc, Economics and Government and enjoyed them all. I know they also have others including some science.

I believe Thinkwell has moved to a streaming format - you may still be able to purchase some used courses on CD-ROM or DVD format from eBay etc.

 

Update some Thinkwell courses still have the CD set available for purchase.
