You may have noticed that not all of our online courses at Scio Academy are exactly the same, and you would be correct. At the heart of our online courses, we have the goal to teach your children thinking and communicating skills. Sometimes, it isn’t necessary to complete an entire 1.0 credit course to learn a skill.
Our Math Masters focus on problem solving and thinking. That means that we have three types of courses for our students and their families:
1. Complete courses
Including everything from the syllabus to a live weekly class session, these courses get the complete high school credit while providing the support that you and your student needs. For these classes, buy the suggested text, print the syllabus, and let’s get started!
2. Self-Paced courses
While similar to our complete courses, these courses range from containing a suggested schedule and recorded lessons to being a short 6 ‑10 week skill based course. Some of the courses in this category are complete high school credits, done at your own pace, but others are more of a gut punch of skill lessons. Sometimes, we just need to brush up on some gaps. While included and created for math masters, these courses are also available to purchase separately from the group. So if you want a short summer semester type review or skill based course, this is your answer.
3. Club courses
These are where I get excited. These are bonus courses that are only available to our math masters or writing society members. These are not high school credit courses, but more club type material to challenge and engage students. Club courses are less demanding of your time and syllabus, but help your student’s mind grow in his understanding of a solid math and writing education.
So there you have it. Three types of courses for three purposes. Whether you want someone to guide you through the entire year, help you check off some skills, or just encourage your student to think well, we’ve got you covered at Scio Academy!
