Yes.  Students taking eLearning courses are taught and assessed on the same curriculum expectations as students in traditional classrooms.  The key difference is that the entire course is delivered in an electronic medium. It must be stated that some courses lend themselves better to a digital environment than others, particularly, courses that are largely reading and writing based.

Teachers will explain the attendance procedure when a course begins.  Essentially, students will be provided with an opportunity to show that they are actively participating in the course – accessing course content, participating in discussions, and submitting work according to deadlines.  The teachers are still required to report attendance to the Office at their home school, but they must follow the Ministry of Education’s Attendance Policy.

“Record enrolment in day school e-learning courses in the day school enrolment register in the same way as enrolment in courses delivered in the classroom.  Where a pupil *participates* in an e-learning course at any time during a week (Monday to Friday), the pupil will be marked present in the course for the entire week.  Where a pupil does not participate in the course during a week (Monday to Friday), the pupil will be marked absent in the course for the entire week.” 

Remember that you will not be physically within the confines of a classroom; therefore, your presence within the e-learning community is less apparent.  If you intend to drop a course, you must contact your course teacher and discuss the change with them and your home school guidance counsellor.

Please keep in mind to be successful in an online course students must stay up to date on assignments and be actively involved in the discussions.  Students should expect to spend a minimum of 6 hours per week online in an e-learning course.  

*Participation may include:

· Working through course content

· Communicating with the teacher and other classmates

· Submitting assignments/Discussions/Quizzes

· Checking and responding to feedback from the teacher

All materials to support courses are available through the LMS.  There are internet links with many of the lessons. Every attempt is made to keep the links active, however, due to the very nature of the web this may not always be the case.  If you find an inactive link please notify your teacher so the issue may be investigated. Your school and community libraries are also available to support your learning.
