Description
Class Experience
This class is taught in English.
Independent work done outside of class is an important and required part of this course and assigned after each meeting. As this course helps students gain insight into the college application process, assignments will vary. Assignments may include completing surveys, researching a college website, reading an article, or learning to navigate a college application. Each assignment is required, and the end result of that assignment (either survey results or knowledge) is often needed to discuss and learn the topic in the following class. The assignments are meant to be thought-provoking, interesting, and add personal value to the class experience while taking up minimal time. Assignments will likely take between 30 minutes to 2 hours, depending on the student and assignment.
This course will use printables and prepared google sheets templates. On the first day of class, students will be given a packet of all printable worksheets, which will need to be ready in time for the 2nd class meeting. All printables will be given at once for your printing convenience. Google sheet templates will be given to students when appropriate. Students will also need a pen/pencil at each class starting with class 2.
In addition to the Outschool classroom, this class uses:
There are no formal grades in this class.
55 minutes per week in class, and an estimated 1 - 2 hours per week outside of class.
This class will expose students to many different aspects and ideas on college as well as a variety of colleges, which may include public, private (religious and non-religious), community, and technical colleges. As many private schools often have a religious affiliation or background, this may be pointed out when discussing a private school in a purely informational manner. Any colleges or universities that are discussed in class are for informational and eductational purposes only. A college's inclusion in a class discussion does not constitute any endorsement by the teacher. As a group class, students are encouraged to share their thoughts and ideas on college as well as respect those shared from other students, even when they are different. There are many ways to 'do college,' and all ways are valid.
