Thread: Has anyone ever taken Virtual School?

  1. #1

    Exclamation Has anyone ever taken Virtual School?

    This is merely a question, because I have a choice to make.

    For my senior year, if I do a virtual class over summer, and successfully pass it, I could take all my classes at home, via my computer.

    It sounds pretty fun, and easy.

    So, here comes the title again: Has anyone ever done/needed Virtual School before?

    I've taken classes that are based online, and they were actually really easy. Because when they gave a test it was like.... Google FTW?

    I enjoyed my online classes a lot.

    Re: Has anyone ever taken Virtual School?

    in BC we have online courses for only the regular provincial curriculum which I stopped taking after 9th grade. I heard Victoria does have some online AP program, but that's not offered on the mainland.

    I did a grad-requirement course called Planning 10 (conscars and varmint should know what it is and why it sucks) via an online service in summer 2006, saved me a LOT of trouble. Other than that, I have not done any online courses.

    however some of my friends do take other online courses. I heard that for some courses like the aforementioned Planning 10, online is much easier than a normal classes, but for other classes like science classes or calculus, online isn't as good as a regular class, and in some cases it's actually a lot more work (e.g. English 12 online has 10x the amount of homework than regular English 12). If you're the type of student who feels the need to consult your teacher fairly often, don't ever take an online course because you're very unlikely to get that sort of help if you do that.

    Just finished placing my class to "successfully complete or else".

    Waiting for Dean to apply it and add it to my account.

    Yeah, I was taking a semester of Spanish 2 online because I failed it. It was pretty easy, but I ended up getting kicked out because I was lazy and decided not to do any of the work for about a month. I got behind and they kicked me.

    I have to do it again this summer so I can get a bright futures scholarship. the worst part is, the only reason I have to take is because I failed the class I was taking at school with a 59%.

    Do not take online courses in College. Degrees recieved via online courses are worthless among many employers. I don't see a problem with it for highschool though.

    I took the Cisco online course, although we did it at the University lab, so it was under exam rules it was still using their online system.
