[QUOTE="Kathy813, post: 47129, member: 1967"] I am very familiar with Keystone's Algebra 1 class as I am currently tutoring a student who takes it online. While I am very impressed with the course layout and materials, the student that I am working with simply can't learn the material by reading through the tutorials or textbook. I have had to teach her the skills and then she works the assigned textbook problems and takes the online quizzes and exams. I personally think that high school level math is very hard to learn online ~ especially if you have weak math skills. I could see other courses like history or social studies being much easier to take online. The state of Georgia also has online courses offered by the state's virtual high school and the school district that I teach in has it's own online courses. None of it is free, however, like in daisylover's state. I have been very impressed with what Lisa says Ohio offers as free online coursework. I think that she said that they even provide the computer and browser connection (correct me if I don't remember that correctly, Lisa). I wrote a paper on this topic for a course that I was taking and found a lot of options by googling the subject. It does take self-motivation to be a successful online student. ~Kathy [/QUOTE]
