We have a homeschool that has two children enrolled. My youngest son is
7 and my oldest son is 17. Both children use online programming in
their homeschooling. Of course my older child uses much more than my
youngest. When I was offered to do a homeschool review of Standard
Deviants Accelerate I was really excited because I knew my oldest son
would be interested in trying out something new. This review focuses
in on my oldest son and what he has experienced as an online student
with this particular program.
His
four classes in the program are AP US History, Chemistry, Algebra,
and Nutrition. We would like to share some positive aspects to some of the courses that he is enrolled in this school semester.
For AP US History the diagram was very useful for him
as well as the videos and notes. Also at the end of each topic there
is a short quiz. There was only one week for AP US History, and each
topic helped him learn extensively about the AP test for history.
For
chemistry there is a nine week program and each week the class goes
more in depth with chemicals and elements on the periodic table. In
each topic there is also a video along with notes that my son liked.
The videos reminded him of PBS Kids programs when he was younger and
he really thought that was cool. It brought back an old school style
of learning for him.
