in an online learning
experience last year and the numbers are growing 30%
annually
90% of Public College and
Universities nationally and
all Georgia public Colleges,
Universities and Technical Schools use an online
learning system for
instruction, communication and
assessment.
The Cobb County School District is a leader in the
integration of technology to provide improved
educational opportunities for students. Cobb
Virtual Academy is an integral part of this leadership.
Completing a meaningful online learning experience
allows students to become familiar with key means of
increasing their own learning skills and knowledge.
It will also prepare them for the demands that they will
encounter in higher education, the workplace, and in
personal life-long learning. While students
informally develop technology skills and gain experience
through their media rich lives, an online learning
experience will require them to complete assignments,
meet deadlines, learn appropriate online behavior, and
effectively collaborate with others in an instructional
setting.
