Hi Linda

Just had a question about the distance education class. How do they teach the classes, by video or emailing set work?

Thanks

Hi Fi

It is all on-line - as in they read the information and answer questions, fill out the details and so forth via on-line programs specifically set up by the Distant Ed. So a particular topic might start with reading info then click on the right answer or watch a short video (given link that links direct) and then answer questions. I was impressed with how it was all put together.
Some activities are to ensure they read and understand and other work is longer or more specific and then uploaded for marking.
There are also booklets if you don't have internet access but as they now have small videos to watch then this is probably a problem for some people travelling.
My son did the second half of Year 10 using this method...and as a parent the good thing...you can also monitor if the work has been uploaded or not. Parents have a portal that takes them to the list of what has or hasn't been uploaded.
