Melissia Anson's blog ::Online Video Classes at Brightstorm










Zig               Ziglar               is               often               quoted               as               saying,               "there               ain't               no               free               lunch"               and               traditionally               it               has               been               true               that               you               get               what               you               pay               for.

With               a               12               year               and               $75               million               dollar               investment               in               education,               SAS               has               delivered               a               product,               at               no               cost               to               US               educators               and               students               that               is               worth               every               penny.

What               this               means               is               that               this               is               a               free               tutoring               tool               available               to               all               students.

SAS               Curriculum               Pathways               is               a               free               online               curriculum/online               tutoring               tool               that,               "is               designed               to               enhance               student               achievement               and               teacher               effectiveness               by               providing               Web-based               curriculum               resources               in               all               the               core               disciplines:               English,               math,               science,               social               studies/history               and               Spanish,               to               educators               and               students               in               grades               8-14               in               virtual               schools,               home               schools,               high               schools               and               community               colleges."
               Their               core               disciplines               are               broken               down               as               follows:

               Science:               Earth               Science,               Physical               Science,               Biology,               Chemistry,               and               Physics
               Math:               Introductory               Algebra,               Intermediate               Algebra,               Advanced               Algebra,               Geometry,               Trigonometry,               and               Data               Analysis
               Spanish:               Culture               &               Civilization,               Dialogue               &               Dialects,               Grammar               in               Practice,               History               &               Politics,               and               Literature
               All               the               disciplines               are               very               informative               and               easy               to               use.

After               working               on               
               the               Spanish               module,               I               now               know               that,               "Me               cocina               es               mui               grande"               (My               kitchen               is               very               large),               and               "Me               bano               es               rojo"               (My               bathroom               is               red).

Prior               to               trying               out               a               few               of               the               Spanish               lessons               my               knowledge               of               Spanish               consisted               of               the               numbers               1               through               5,               the               color               yellow               (Amarillo),               green               (verde)               and               a               few               words               like,               "de               nada"               and               "gracias".

Under               the               Conversational               Spanish               module,               I               was               able               to               listen               the               to               passage               for               pronunciation               purposes               while               watching               a               visual               of               the               topic               or               I               was               able               to               choose               to               follow               along               with               the               script.

The               script               allowed               me               to               roll               my               mouse               over               certain               words               and               they               would               be               translated               into               English               for               me.

I               was               able               to               answer               the               practice               questions               and               also               able               to               hear               the               correct               answer.

Finally               when               I               was               done               and               I               answered               the               questions               on               the               quiz,               I               was               able               to               e-mail               the               quiz               to               myself               as               a               PDF.
               In               the               English               module,               I               chose               to               pull               up               Communication               Skills,               Struggle               and               Growth,               Maya               Angelou's,               "I               know               why               the               caged               bird               sings".

It               just               so               happens               that               I               bought               the               book               from               the               library               last               week               and               I               was               curious               to               see               how               the               lessons               would               be               crafted               around               the               book.

To               my               delight               there               were               links               to               Maya               Angelou               speaking               about               her               uncle,               a               link               to               Maya               Angelou's               biography,               a               link               to               Oprah's               interview               along               with               other               opportunities               to,               "Read,               Prepare,               and               Reflect".
               In               the               math               module,               I               focused               on               Geometry,               in               part               because               I               know               a               high               school               student               who               will               be               taking               geometry               online               as               part               of               North               Carolina's               Virtual               High               School.

I               chose               Geometry:               2D               figures               and               I               am               proud               to               say               that               all               the               knowledge               of               my               youth               was               not               lost.

I               was               able               to               quickly               catch               up               on               how               to               calculate               the               area               of               a               parallelogram,               triangle,               trapezoid,               and               rhombus.

I               was               able               to               pause               the               audio,               rewind,               and               redo               until               I               understood               exactly               what               I               had               to               do.
               For               science,               I               picked               Physics.

Sufficed               to               say               that               I               am               now               unsure               how               I               earned               an               A               in               this               honors               class               in               high               school.

I               would               definitely               use               the               word               robust               to               describe               the               science               instruction.
               Given               my               particular               interest               in               Social               Studies               I               found               the               wide               variety               of               lessons               to               be               both               sensitive               and               inclusive               of               beliefs               and               culture               without               shying               away               from               topics               that               might               make               some               individuals               uncomfortable               like               apartheid.
               While               the               curriculum               is               designed               with               the               student               in               mind,               it               does               serve               as               an               excellent               refresher               for               parents               who               are               interested               in               assisting               their               children               in               the               various               subjects,               especially               math.
               In               closing,               I               would               like               to               note               that               Departments               of               Education,               School               Districts               and               even               individual               teachers               are               often               criticized               by               some               groups               for               curriculum               that               is               culturally               biased.

Many               of               those               groups               will               point               to               the               lack               of               in               depth               study               of               the               Spanish               Culture,               African               Culture,               Asian               Culture               and               or               Middle               Eastern               Culture               in               the               school's               core               curriculum.

SAS               Curriculum,               with               their               offerings,               does               provide               parents               and               educators               with               the               opportunity               to               fill               in               those               cultural               gaps               if               they               do               exist.
               SAS               has               created               a               free               program               that               rivals               any               online               self-study               program               and               is               a               must               for               any               student               whether               they               are               in               the               traditional               brick               and               mortar               high               school,               in               a               virtual               high               school,               taking               virtual               classes               or               participating               in               a               homeschool.
