It's been one semester since I have embraced cyberspace high school for my child. The start was a bumpy ride. One of her issues has been proscratination. I searched a bit to know what others think about this adventure. I found a discussion from 2006 that was an honest one about the perks of attending school like for socializing. Procrastination was mentioned in the discussion: http://www.knowledgesutra.com/forums/topic/37583-online-high-school/. When my child looks back on this experience I wonder what she'll think.
Her first semester was using the Elluminate software as the online tool. The second semester the school has switched to another system called Blackboard (yes from the blackboard to the whiteboard and back to the blackboard again, haha). Her classes include the usual curriculum plus earth science and computer gaming (not playing them, but writing them). I'm proud of her courageous soul to take on such an adventure in life.
