How do I know if my child would be successful doing online learning?

By JPetillo - Posted on 13 November 2009

Some of the qualities that we have seen in our most successful students are:

The ability to work independently.
A willingness to seek out answers to their questions, or to move on to a different subject until the necessary help is available.
The willingness to ask for help when needed. There are many opportunities to get help from teachers, from other students, or from technical support. Students have to be willing to make use of those resources and let someone know if they don't understand something.
Some internal motivation to succeed in the program. Students who are forced into an online learning environment will be less likely to be successful.
