    Since I've been mentioning a lot about the academy I'm in and how the schedule works; I decided to take screen shots for you guys to actually see what I do every day at school. We are given school laptops in order for us to work on or school work although most of us students go on games instead of working sometimes XD but they are working on a way to get rid of that situation.


    The site:

    Spoiler:


    The text in red basically explains what going on in the picture. You sign into the techonline site then go to your courses. If you click on the courses you'll have a list of assignments for each hexmester.

    Spoiler:


    This is where all of my homework comes into play. There are lessons for each assignment instead of having to sit in a boring class and have the teacher lecture you all day long. Each assignment is due in a specific day like a regular class. Usually assignments are due the next week when you have that one subject. For instance Spanish is on Wednesdays for me so my assignment that I had last Wednesday is due next Wednesday. You can view your grades or talk to your teacher by PMing them or just go to their class room and talk to them during Lab time.

    Here is the schedule that we follow during school.

    Spoiler:


    This schedule is different then usual. Since this is our last hexmester; the schedule is all different. We have challenges which are projects. We have all hexmester to work on them. Each period is 55 minutes(If I could remember correctly) Since we have challenges all this week; I get to go to Robotics because of the fact that I'm in the FRC(Work on big robots). This would how the schedule would usually go:

    Mondays: Math days
    Tuesdays: Science days
    Wednesdays: Spanish
    Thursdays: History/English
    Fridays: Tech day

    Tech day is basically Programing; Digital Design; Game and sim
    I don't have History so I go to a English lab. Labs are where you get to work on your assignments that you are trying to catch up on or need extra time on them.
     
    WOW that looks cool, but at the same time confusing when you first look at it. The only online-course I've ever taken was Spanish I and II on Rosetta Stone! :P haha What's your favorite subject?

    This was my first time taken a online course. My favorite would have to be Physical Science then Algebra 2.
