1.How do students at 3DLearn Interactive Academy participate in classes? Is everything done online?
Answer: At 3DLearn Interactive Academy, students have a good mixture of online time as well as directed hands-on learning at home. For instance, students spend an average of 40 minutes a day in our virtual classroom, two to three hours online researching the current class topic, and about thirty minutes talking with their peers. This averages out to about four hours and 30 minutes a day online.
2. My child is not especially goo at the computert yet. Will this hold them back at your school?
Answer: We do recommend students have computer experience prior to joining our program. This is due to the amount and level of interaction and Internet usage that goes on during a regular school day with us. This does not mean incoming students have to be Internet or computer experts but we do expect enough basic experience to enable them to function in this environment.
3. We have been homeschooling for many years and love the flexibility it allows our family. How does scheduling and taking vacations fit in with 3DLearn?
Answer: We truly believe that keeping kids actively involved in outside activities, homeschool groups, music lessons and so on is critical to the success of our program. Family vacations are encouraged and usually students prepare some kind of final project upon their return sharing some of the highlights of their trip. Alternative assignments may be requested to take along with the student if the parents so choose. The beauty of delivering instruction via the Internet is the wonderful flexibility if offers students. They have access to the assignment sheet at the web site any time...day or night. They also may upload their daily assignments as soon as they are complete or later in the evening if they need more time.
4. I am only interested in a part-time class. Is this available?
5. I'm not sure if your academy fits the needs of my child. How do I know my child will succeed with you?
Answer: 3DLearn has a careful screening process to insure proper placement of your child. We match grade levels and ability levels first, then we look for how much experience a student may or may not have with technology. Our thorough screening process helps ensure a more successful experience with 3DLearn.
