Distance Education: Is a Virtual Classroom
for You?
Part 1
You may want to take a class that your
high school doesn’t offer. Under some circumstances, you can still enroll in
the class—through distance learning.
Distance education means taking a class
without being physically present where it is being taught. Internet-based
technology lets students participate in lectures and class sessions online from
almost anywhere.
Some high schools agree to recognize
distance-learning credits when they don’t have the resources to offer a course
themselves. Distance education is often used to increase options in rural areas
and for AP courses.
For you, it might mean doing self-tutorial
at home in the evening, or participating in a class that is 1,000 miles away,
along with other high school students. Check with your school counselor to see
what’s available.
