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 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.

Additional Tips

Although working and going to school is challenging, it can be a rewarding experience if you use some foresight. These tips can help you handle the situation and make the most of your time:

· Discuss your plans with your family. Balancing the demands of school and work is easier with their support.

· Start slowly; don’t commit a lot of hours immediately.

· Avoid time conflict by planning your class and work schedules as far ahead of time as possible.

· Use your time efficiently. You can use 10 minutes waiting in a line to go over as few pages of assigned reading. If your job has a lot of downtime and your boss has no objection, you can use slow periods to do schoolwork.

· If you commute to your job on public transportation, bring your schoolwork with you so you can work along the way.

· Be flexible and willing to make sacrifices. You may have to cut down on some other things you’d like to do because of your school and work commitments.

· If you have too much on your plate, admit it. Then cut back as needed.

· Schedule relaxation time. Everyone needs some downtime to stay happy and healthy.

On my spring break i slept in allot. I also went to go hang out with some friends a few times at there house. I went to my sister's friend pool party for Easter at San Bernandino. Most of the other days I stayed home and played some video games and had movie night with my brothers and my mom every night.

He reminds students that “the activities and courses students choose vary considerably, so it’s important for young people to keep their individual situations clearly in mind.” MacGowan continues, “For example, student actors should allow for the fact that they won’t have as much time during performance seasons. Student athletes need to remember the times of the year that they’ll be tied up with games and practices. Other students who are in classes that make considerable demands outside of the classroom must keep that reality in mind.”
